Dawn has her day in court

A BLAZING row sparks a blaze of another kind in the Emmerdale vicarage on Friday.

Well, you've got to expect fireworks when you open your home to a Dingle...

The drama begins when Debbie flies off the handle after seeing Daz attempt to kiss Jasmine.

A bottle of vodka gets smashed, and Debbie storms off upstairs in true teenager style - but when a fire breaks out, she finds herself trapped in the house...

But don't worry, Debbie lives to fight another day - and tell her best friend that she loves her!

Meanwhile, Dawn's day of reckoning is approaching - and I can reveal that justice is done when she is caged for her crimes against the taxpayer. Hurrah!

Over in Summer Bay, a car accident results in the truth about baby Noah's parentage being exposed (Home and Away).

Hospital medics caring for Kim after a car hits him discover that his blood group isn't compatible with the small child's. Shock horror!

Unsurprisingly, it is Doctor Flynn who has to break the news - Scott must be the real dad.

Cue lots of smugness from happy couple Hayley and Scott, who decide to get married to celebrate. (What is it with this wench? This is the third proposal she has accepted in the past five years and she's only about 12!)

Was amused to read that Mel is struggling to finish her dissertation on time as a result of her booze problem. (Hollyoaks).

Plenty of other students manage it - just get the girl some caffeine tablets!

While I'm on the topic, I watched Hollyoaks - Extreme Challenge on Easter Sunday, which involved Roxanne McKee, who plays Louise, and Matt Milburn, who plays Joe, heading off to Australia in a bid to win a luxury holiday.

To do this, they had to complete a series of extreme challenges. They swam with sharks, went mountain biking, and did an endurance activity that would have left me on the floor in about 10 minutes.

When it came to jumping out of an aeroplane and abseiling, however, Roxanne put her foot down.

And who can blame her? Even if I had the nerve to walk down the side of a building, there isn't a cat's chance in hell I would ever be tough enough to get involved with that parachuting lark.

Matt did the whole 'hey, I'm not forcing you to do it, I just want you to feel the same buzz I did' speech.

Roxanne dealt with this very admirably, calmly explaining her reasons for not wanting to fly through the air like a bullet - whereas I would have hit him over the head with a badger.

I suppose some people will do just about anything for a luxury holiday - but if it involves going through what this pair did, I think I'll take Blackpool on a rainy day.

NOTE: As if it wasn't bad enough that Muppet Christmas Carol wasn't on terrestrial telly at Christmas (good job I've got it on video), TV bosses didn't see fit to schedule the classic film Easter Parade over the weekend. Bizarre.
