There's some upsetting news for Shula and Lilian makes herself useful.

Alistair gives Jazzer a mock interview for the aquaponics job. Jazzer can’t think of anything to ask at the end of the interview. They’ve still had no news on Jim, Alistair thinks he’s just being stubborn. An upset Shula phones Alistair, Dorothy’s broken up with Dan.

Alice and Pip catch up at The Bull, but Pip keeps her cards close to her chest about Brookfield’s plan for Peggy’s proposal. They share their concerns about work and the responsibilities of being a parent. They agree they need to let their hair down at Tom and Natasha’s party.

Behind the bar, Kenton gets a text to say that Oliver can’t make his shift. Lilian offers to cover for him. Later, she and Kenton discuss The Bull’s cash flow problem. She tells Kenton she needs something to sink her teeth into and would like to help out at The Bull more often. Besides, she comes for free.

Shula comes round to Greenacres. She asks Alistair if he’ll ring Dan, she doesn’t want to keep bothering him. Alistair spends ages on the phone. When he comes back he tells Shula he rang Dorothy too. She told him she just didn’t feel a spark with Dan anymore. It reminded Alistair of when Shula ended their relationship. It’s got him thinking about his relationship with Jim. He’s decided it’s time to find a place of his own. He’s looking forward to a fresh start.
