Joe spots an opportunity for revenge and tempers flare at Lynda's rehearsal

Kirsty explains to confused Lynda that Roy’s snappiness is because he’s in a bad way over Lexi. He had no idea it was coming.

Kirsty’s fears of freezing in the Brookfield barn during Canterbury Tales rehearsals prove to be well founded, but Lynda’s devised an energetic warm-up. She also reveals there will be a ‘best teller’ prize as an incentive for line-learning.

Harrison reports to David that the seriousness of the recent spate of joyriding has ramped up. After a sticky moment for David, Harrison reveals it was someone known to the police. 

Oliver, Eddie and Joe get the apples ready for pressing. When Oliver leaves to get ready for his first shift at The Bull, Joe says he’s not sure he wants to go there if Oliver’s going to be behind the bar gloating that he got the job. Eddie has to make a sharp exit when he realises he’s forgotten it’s rehearsals tonight. He suffers further ignominy when Lynda berates him over his performance.

Later Joe tries to play a trick on Oliver to undermine his bartending skills, but it backfires when he overhears Oliver speaking tenderly about memories of Caroline, and Joe shamefacedly backs off.
