Christina learnt a few weeks ago that Lucy’s murdered mother, Rachel, is her biological daughter. When Christina was younger, she gave birth to little Rachel after sleeping with her boss. Christina wasn’t able to care for her daughter alone, so she gave the baby to her boss and his partner. Amid her overwhelming grief towards losing Rachel, Christina is determined to build a connection with Lucy, despite the fact the teenager doesn’t know who she really is. Next week, Sally and Tim Metcalfe (Sally Dynevor and Joe Duttine) are surprised when Ruth the social worker arrives and reveals that Lucy has been keeping a journal about her time with them. Inside the diary are entries from Lucy about how Sally is ‘very controlling’ and has apparently been saying nasty things behind her back. Christina is Rachel’s biological mum, making her Lucy’s grandmother (Picture: ITV) Meanwhile, Lucy confides in Christina about the social worker speaking to Sally. When Christina gets home later in the day, she tells George Shuttleworth (Tony Maudsley) that she’s worried about Lucy and really wants to keep her safe. In the week, Christina spots Lucy in the precinct looking at some family videos. Christina takes a look herself, but is troubled to spot Richie (Nathan Sussex) in the background of one, clearly being abusive towards Rachel.
