Three weeks of themed programmes from the last two decades revisiting key moments from the characters’ lives and the events that make Ambridge unforgettable. This episode forms part of the third week when we take a look at five different occasions that mark unmissable dates in The Ambridge Calendar.
As the residents of Ambridge gather on the green for the traditional Christmas Lights switch on, rumours abound. It seems that David and Ruth Archer have agreed to sell Brookfield to Justin Elliot’s firm, Damara Capital, which has a vested interest in the council approving plans for a new road that would impact hugely on the village. The residents have been mounting a campaign against the building of the road believing David and Ruth to be on their side, but instead it looks like they’re about to betray their community.
Not everyone is unhappy though as Emma has a surprise for Ed.
