Lynda makes plans for the future and Chris hides a guilty secret

Lynda looks forward to some time to herself while Robert takes Monty for a long walk. Her doctors are pleased with her recovery. About a month ago she had a very sore back but all seems well now. While gardening she muses on the plans for this year’s Flower and Produce Show and how Emma is running things as chairperson. Lynda prefers Fallon’s idea over Emma’s. She’s going to join the next (virtual) committee meeting for the Flower and Produce Show. When she gets a stab of worry about her appearance she talks herself into being confident. 

After not getting the answers he wants from Alice, Adam tries to get up to visit Home Farm but it causes him too much pain and Ian insists he’s not going anywhere. He accepts he’ll just have to trust Alice; Brian had to keep the harvest going somehow in his absence. 

Feeling guilty for drinking beer with Ed at Little Grange, Chris calls Alice but can’t bring himself to come clean. She’s working late and tells him to start making dinner without her. Chris doesn’t want to admit he’s fallen off the wagon first. Alice appears to have not drunk anything since their pact to not drink during the week. Even on weekends she refuses to have a single glass. He decides to ask Emma to keep his beer with Ed a secret.
