Christine fears for the future and Adam has some making up to do

Eddie sprays Adam’s barley. Adam’s furious when Brian calls to confront him about the blackgrass in front of Eddie. Later, Adam reminds Brian that he is running the farm now. Brian can’t complain about a minor mistake when he cost them millions. He advises Brian to stay out of his way in future. 

Eddie borrows Adam’s flatbed to collect the portaloo from BL. Lilian sees him, and asks what on earth he’s doing. Eddie assures her that he has Justin’s permission. Justin must be really keen on anonymity if even Lilian didn’t know. Lilian almost reveals that they haven’t been talking, then quickly claims it had merely slipped her mind. 

The occupational therapist’s report on The Lodge has revealed that it won’t be suitable for Christine’s 24-hour care. Christine’s waiting for a place at a council care home, but she tells Adam that she’s worried about being a bed-blocker. She’s asked Peter to look into alternative care homes. But Lilian informs her that Tony has already found her a place at The Laurels. Lilian can’t understand Christine’s reluctance to consider the plan. Peggy has to agree that it’s the best option, but insists on talking to Christine alone. She reminds Christine of the promise she make after the scam. Peggy will cover all her costs.
