Lilian steps in and Tom shares his vision.

Clarrie calls on Emma. Emma's speaks of the hard times she and Ed have been through, and comments judgementally on Nic and Will's relationship. Clarrie defends Nic, and points out it's better for George that Will is settled. 

Tom's been thinking about whether to join HEFF, the regional food marketing group. Brenda thinks it's worth considering. He's a brilliant salesman but there's strength in numbers.

Peggy house is looking spotless. She tells Lilian that Elona's worth her weight in gold. Tom calls in with some vegetables. Peggy tells Tom that Elona will be his new neighbour. 

Back at the office, Lilian comments on Tom's perkiness. Brenda tells her about Pat and Tony's additional financial troubles with the Underwood's fine.

Lilian calls on Tony. Tony asks if it's true that Clive and Matt had a drink together. Lilian admits it's true but she's told Matt he shouldn't have anything to do with Clive. She has something more important to speak to Tony about, and apologises for having been too preoccupied to grasp how serious things are. She offers to lend them the £10K they need for Underwoods. Tony is overcome, and doesn't know what to say. Lilian just wishes he'd come to her sooner. It's what families are for.
