son to complain of fake symptoms so that he will be diagnosed with
concussion. Rita is arrested and charged with assaulting a minor and
Cilla coaches Chesney into giving the 'right' answers; Rita is ordered
to pay £500 in damages to the family and £500 in court fees.
Disappointed with the court payment, Cilla seeks a £3,000 out of
court settlement. Rita puts the Kabin on the market and prepares to
leave the area, but Les talks Cilla out of any further action. Rita
bears no ill will against Chesney, later employing him to do a paper

but Les takes him back in. He is given a pure breed Great Dane dog,
which he names Schmeichel after the Danish former Manchester United
footballer Peter Schmeichel, by the Duckworths. He also befriends
Sophie Webster (Brooke Vincent). Later that year, Cilla starts to
abuse Chesney, such as threatening to hit him if he tells Les about
her affairs and also running away with him as she taunts him that
no-one loves him. Eventually, Cilla is good to Chesney.
