Remembrance Day brings thoughtful reflection.

Remembrance Day brings thoughtful reflection, and Adam has a startling idea.

Jennifer cries off from the Remembrance service with a terrible cold. Alan leads the service, which brings back memories for Peggy. Shula and Alan talk about Jill and her memories of Brookfield - she has spent 57 years in Ambridge. Shula thinks about Dan who's turning 20. Peggy twists her ankle and people are naturally worried, but she insists she's fine.

Jennifer's putting together a photo album for Peggy - to be ready by Thursday for her birthday. Adam cringes at an embarrassing photo of him as a child dressed in a Tigger costume. 

Brian reports that Debbie has been unceremoniously sacked by email - after everything she's done for Borchester Land! She was furious, and Brian and Adam share her outrage. Adam feels that Justin Elliot wants Home Farm out of the picture - having lost contracting work to RB Farming. Adam may have to let his workers, Jeff and Andy, go.

But Adam has an idea - they could buy one or both Brookfield land parcels. Jennifer worries that they'd be seen to be taking advantage of David and Ruth. But inspired Adam wonders at the point of thinking small - let's buy the whole farm, he says.
