There are celebrations at The Bull, and Vicky get some support.

Lilian and Paul are delighted to see each other when they meet at a posh London hotel. Paul treats Lilian to afternoon tea and tickets to a show, which Lilian loves.
Mike and Vicky marvel at Brenda's excitement about Bethany. Even Tom's impressed by how maternal Brenda's being.
Vicky confesses to Amy that she's worried about Bethany's feeding. Amy reassures her. Although Bethany may take a little longer to learn, it's worth persevering. She'll get someone from the breast feeding team to visit again.
Jazzer and Neil wait for Mike to arrive at the Bull to wet the baby's head. They're joined by Rob Titchener. When talk turns to recruitment for the new dairy, Jazzer tells Rob to put his name down - especially if they're offering accommodation.
Neil tells Mike that Rob's a friendly, straightforward kind of bloke, but Jazzer's not so sure. When Mike and Neil are alone, Mike says he couldn't be happier. Now he's held Bethany he can face anything for her sake. He thanks Neil for helping him to see his way through it all. He can't wait to bring Bethany and his Vicky back home.
