Stella

Ruth Jones returns to the Welsh valleys as put-upon single mother Stella. Stella and Sean are preparing for their new arrival, while Emma is settling into married life with Sunil.

After confessing to Sean that a one-night stand with Rob could mean he's the father of her baby, Stella's heartbroken boyfriend plans to leave Pontyberry for good.

Stella feels destined to spinsterhood until Aunty Brenda arranges a job at the Bap Factory to bake away the blues. Her first day soon takes an unsavoury turn, though. Elsewhere, Britain's favourite ballroom-dancing astrologer Russell Grant sweetens the mood at Nadine and Karl's salon opening.

Whilst Emma and Sunil kiss and make up, Alan's world begins to collapse as the rugby club looks set to close. Dai, meanwhile, is bereft when Paula leaves him, and Rob takes control of the building firm.

Little Alan enlists a delighted Bobby as his choreographer when he plans to enter Got to Dance, while drunken mistakes ensue at Stella's school reunion.

There's nowhere to hide when Stella accidentally interrupts what appears to be a romantic date between Rob and Melissa.

Unable to locate Dai, Aunty Brenda sets WPC Glover on the case to find the heartbroken ex-serviceman. Meanwhile the dance competition judge has the locals in spin.

Stella isn't enthusiastic about Luke's boxing career and confronts Rob for wrongfully encouraging their son, but the debate only reignites sparks between the old lovers.

Alan and Aunty Brenda team up to raise funds in a last-ditch attempt to save the rugby club. Off the pitch, Rob and Stella try to rebuild their trust in one another, but his secret threatens to ruin everything. Meanwhile wonders never cease in Pontyberry as unlucky-in-everything Alan becomes the local Casanova.

Rob makes Stella a life-changing offer, but as chaos engulfs her family and friends, can she accept it?
