  • Pat and Tony are back and refreshed from, by all accounts, a great holiday. Things conspire to bring them back down, slowly but surely. Jason is not around to continue the work, so Tony decides to do it himself.
  • Sharon appears at Bridge Farm, Pat is stunned and manages to, just about, stay polite. She’s rather surprised that she’s already seen John, but does the thing that John has failed to do – tells Sharon that he’s doesn’t actually live at Bridge Farm any more and that he’s living with someone, without actually giving details. Sharon is very surprised at this. Pat and Tony give John the benefit of the doubt over why Sharon didn’t know about Hayley and decide not to confront him.
  • Sean recommends to Lynda that, rather than sacrifice the whole play, maybe bringing Clive out of sight, on to his technical team (which he needs help with anyway), could work. Lynda manages to use all her powers of tact and diplomacy to get Clive’s agreement and Sean promises to try to win Kate around.
