However, in next week’s episodes of the BBC soap, Dana may decide she wants a fresh start but is she telling her dad and Bobby Beale (Clay Milner Russell) the truth about her decision to defer her university place?
In upcoming scenes, Stacey feels she’s made a breakthrough with Jean when she agrees to go to the carnival party.

As Dana begins to doubt whether she can leave her father, Bobby, Harvey and Rocky Cotton (Brian Conley) plan a surprise party for her.
The trio suggest inviting Jean considering the close bond she once had with Dana but Harvey refuses.

He quickly tells Eve Unwin (Heather Peace) what’s happened who pays the taxi driver a visit and warns him to be more sensitive.
Harvey wonders whether he’s doing the right thing by keeping his distance from Jean and struggles with his conscience.
Meanwhile, Dana continues to worry about her dad and tries to defer her place at university.

Later, Dana follows Harvey into Peggy’s while opening up about her decision to postpone her studies.
However, before he has a chance to respond everyone jumps out and surprises her.

Dana developed a bond with Jean during her relationship with Harvey and she could provide a supportive shoulder to lean on.
