Ed finds himself in hot water and there’s a nasty shock for Philip

Emma’s upbeat mood cheers Ed who’s discovered Eddie’s using the sheep shed for extra turkey poults. Emma wants to talk to Fallon about extending the use of the Tearoom’s orchard seating area. 
Both Philip and Gavin are shocked to discover they are being sued by Tracy for the explosion at Grey Gables. A letter from a solicitor on her behalf claims it’s caused her psychological distress. Gavin convinces Philip not to rush to confront Tracy.
Alice rehearses what she’ll say to Ed. Thinking that he has a crush on her she wants to be kind but clear that she is one-man woman. She doesn’t believe him when he tells her she’s got the wrong end of the stick. Ed explains the miscommunication to Emma, who’s horrified. She feels this is a typical assumption from Alice; so entitled she thinks the whole world’s in love with her. But Ed explains he thinks Alice has a drinking problem. She was clearly drunk, and not for the first time. Ed’s cautious about relaying this to Chris but Emma’s adamant that he has a right to know.
