Storylines
Dan and Ashley are the potential adoptive parents of Daisy. They have already had Daisy stay with them for a night when they have dinner with Daisy's foster parents, Arshad Ahmed and Mariam Ahmed. Ashley admits to Arshad that Daisy would not settle during her stay with them, but Arshad reminds him of Daisy's past, as she finds it difficult to trust adults. Mariam decides to contact social services. Dan and Ashley visit the Ahmeds again with social worker Viktoria. Ashley says he is worried that because he works from home and Dan works in the City, he will be the one to look after Daisy when she is unwell or school is closed and he may end up resenting Dan. Dan says he has always wanted to start a family and promises to take time off work to help. Ashley says he wants to go ahead with the adoption and Viktoria says they can proceed. Dan and Ashley later collect Daisy from Arshad and Mariam.
