Lexi attempts to forgive and forget and David issues a stern warning

Pip’s apprehensive about visiting another nursery, so Ruth agrees to accompany her for a second opinion. Pip’s fears were unfounded; Rosie didn’t stop smiling from the moment they arrived. She hopes this will help her manage her farm work better. Ruth tells Pip that she did vote for the rewilding at the partnership meeting. She and Ruairi thought it would be a good use of poor land. They apologise for arguing and agree to start keeping their personal and professional lives separate.
Jennifer arrives at Ambridge Hall to set things right with Lexi. She explains that she had to fight so hard to keep Adam when she gave birth that she assumed all mothers would be the same. Lexi wants Jennifer to see that she’s had to take a huge risk too. What if Adam and Ian hadn’t wanted the baby after all? She knew they’d make great fathers and that’s why she agreed to carry their child.
David’s still seething about Vince Casey winning the abattoir bid. He rings Justin to offer his commiserations but Justin does all he can to avoid him. Later, David arrives at the abattoir; he’s discovered Justin’s intentions to turn the abattoir into office spaces. Justin clearly has no regard for the community. He’ll never trust him again, and neither will anyone else in Ambridge.

Intelligent speech, the most insightful journalism, the wittiest comedy, the most fascinating features and the most compelling drama and readings anywhere in UK radio.
