The Real Housewives of Cheshire

The Housewives are back and Cheshire is on fire, literally! Rachel's trust in husband John is dented when she discovers he's been living a secret life. Tanya's on the move after disaster strikes, whilst Dawn struggles with some difficult family news and new housewife Perla finds herself in a sticky situation.

It's Dawn's 45th birthday and Cheshire is in full on party mode. Rachel is reeling from the shock of John's secret yoga classes with Perla. Ester finds herself in the firing line for some typically outrageous behaviour. After the fire, Tanya moves into a new house, and the fireworks go off in style at Warford Hall.

The fallout from Dawn's explosive birthday celebrations causes ruptures in Cheshire. Rachel questions her friendship with Ester. Dawn and Perla face off during a feisty lunchtime encounter. Rachel finally seeks advice about her wonky boobs. And Hanna invites the Housewives out for a spot of getting to know you…but will she regret it?

Whilst Rachel and Perla finally bury the hatchet, Hanna realises that an uneasy truce could be coming to an end. There could be trouble for Dawn and Tanya once more just around the corner.

The divide between Dawn, Rachel and Tanya grows even further as Hanna's intentions are questioned more and more. Ester and Zdenka go in search of the perfect face whilst the ladies join Nermina for some horsing around.

Hanna's well voiced observations have blown the fissures in Cheshire society wide open. Rachel and Dawn's friendship is on the rocks, and the future for Dawn and Tanya looks even more bleak. Meanwhile Seema continues preparations for her dancing competition, Ashley's mum and dad move into Warford Hall, and could romance finally be on the cards for Lauren?

Dawn's dramatic blowout has left Cheshire in turmoil. She remains unrepentant, but the ladies begin to wonder if her behaviour is symptomatic of deeper problems. In a bid to lighten the mood, Ester invites the gang on a city break in Palma. Can bridges be built or will it simply lead to more problems for Tanya, Rachel and Dawn.

Ester's last attempt to unite the girls in Palma is skewered by a surprise visit from Christine that threatens to cause even deeper divisions. Meanwhile the girls are left in limbo, Tanya's struggles continue and Rachel goes large with John. Very large.

Rachel's daughter Cheski turns 21 and Cheshire is ready to party, but as tensions build, is there much to celebrate? Rachel recovers from her operation and receives many visitors, but where is Dawn? Ester's best intentions raise eyebrows, while Lauren's dog contributes to the interior design at Warford Hall. Meanwhile, Seema's revelations spell trouble for Tanya and Perla.

The competition hots up as Seema's charity dance gets underway. Tensions between Dawn and Rachel run high once more whilst Tanya finds herself torn between Perla and Seema. The show could either end in ballroom bliss or as a dancing disaster.

Brian Dowling is joined by `The Real Housewives of Cheshire' as they dig deep into the highs and lows of the latest dramatic season. The ladies can put their differences aside or it will be an opportunity for old feuds to be reignited.
