BERNICE Blackstock and Bob Hope have joined forces, taking charge of the B&B as a duo.
But when The Grange reopens next week, Emmerdale residents are shocked by a macabre discovery.
The Grange has news owners
The B&B reopens next week
But a dead body is soon discovered
Bob Hope (portrayed by Tony Audenshaw) has been desperate to prove he can light up the dancefloor with his DJ skills.
Unfortunately, Bernice Blackstock (Samantha Giles) is taking no chances for the B&B’s grand reopening and tells him she’s hired somebody else for the big night.
Bob feels deflated when she confirms a harpist who she clearly fancies will be their act for the opening.
The day soon approaches… and Bernice manages to get what she wants when she awakes blissfully in the B&B bedroom after a night with Tim the harpist.
She quickly realises she seriously overslept, much to her horror as the re-opening is a short time away.
Bernice is panicked into action and, although unkempt, manages to cover for her absence with an exasperated Bob.
That same afternoon, the pair of them anxiously await their first customers but there’s another issue – Tim the harpist is nowhere to be found.
Bernice gets defensive when she tries to explain his absence, unaware a major bombshell is about to be dropped on her.
Guests for the re-opening finally arrive, leaving Bernice to revel in her role as a hostess.
But Bob approaches her to bursts her bubbles as he tells her he’s found Tim the harpist dead.
Sadly, this triggers a whirlwind of consequences when nurse Wendy Posner (Susan Cookson) overhears them mid-conversation.
Wendy is devastated when she mishears and jumps to the conclusion that Bob and Bernice have slept together.
Bob is later left to deal with the damage as he knocks on her door only to be accused of having an affair with Bernice.
To make matters worse, Wendy gets her revenge by dumping ice cold water all over him from an upstairs window.
Chaos ensues, leaving Bernice bemused when a soaking wet Bob arrives at the B&B.
The day of the re-opening grows in bitterness for Bernice when she hears of the accusation of having an affair with Bob, much to her outrage.
Convinced Wendy could be going through the menopause, she’s quick to form a plan to intervene.
Can she turn things around for Bob?
Will their big day eventually go smoothly?
