Johnny taunted Dean about being banned from Jade's fundraiser in Wednesday's episode, making him more determined to find a way to get there.

After manipulating Jean by reminding her of his late brother, Dean was allowed into The Vic, on the condition that he only stayed until Jade had done his speech.

As they waited for her big moment, Dean begged Jade to stay with him in London, but she remained firm on her plans to move to Pakistan and told Dean that there was nothing he could do to stop her.

Dean then took shocking action to keep Jade close by interfering with her oxygen machine when no-one was looking.

Meanwhile, Linda was furious to see Dean in the bar and retreated upstairs.

When Jean went to check on her, Linda made her see that Dean was playing her.

Realising Linda was right, Jean returned downstairs and ordered Dean to leave. When he refused, Johnny and George physically removed him from the pub.

As Jade took to the stage, she struggled to breathe and eventually collapsed.
