• Kate, for a change, is stocking the Home Farm freezer – with unsold vegetarian stock from the shop after the “petty, repressed and unimaginative” Betty asked her to remove it.
• Brian’s not pleased – he lost the case to have Sammy re-housed and he’s run out of ideas as to where to house Greg because Jennifer is adamant she needs that cottage back. The current thinking is to remove Kate from her’s ….
• Alistair visits Shula for lunch, but despite her having told Caroline that she knows she’s been hard work recently, the atmosphere is still tense. When Alistair suggests that all the bribes to get Daniel to take his medicine might not be the best idea, she responds that he’s not a horse and doesn’t take it very kindly. A frustrated Alistair storms out.
