Philip receives some worrying information

Philip receives some worrying information and Tracy attempts to help a friend in need.

Kirsty is eager to come to Borchester General with Philip but he persuades her to go to the Grey Gables colleagues meet-up. 

Before Kirsty arrives, Tracy supposes to Roy there must be something dodgy about Philip’s workman for the explosion to have happened. Tracy is impatient for the investigation into the explosion to be done. Kirsty and Roy fill in Tracy about Robert’s outburst at Oliver and Tracy rushes off to find him. Roy reports the band Kirsty wanted for the wedding party is already booked. Kirsty’s not sure if they should be having a party when the village is so sombre. Roy insists it should go ahead. 

Tracy finds Oliver at Grey Gables on the bench Lynda arranged as a memorial for Caroline. Oliver is pleased that Caroline is not around to witness the explosion and the shock it sent him into. Tracy doesn’t think he should blame himself. Oliver opens the inspection report into the explosion in front of Tracy but he won’t tell her its conclusions.

Oliver tells Philip that the cause of the explosion lies with his building firm and explains what the investigation found. Philip apologises profusely and hurriedly calls Gavin but has to leave a voicemail.
