Brian joins the debate and Lily jumps to conclusions.

Freddie tells Russ about his plans to upgrade his DJ kit to get more bookings and Lily excitedly announces her idea of having a Lower Loxley Easter Bunny again this year. When Russ refuses to wear the costume again, Freddie and Lily bet on whether he can be persuaded. Later, they spot the Easter Bunny and although the costume’s slightly different, they think Russ must’ve changed his mind.  Later Russ is confused when Freddie and Lily congratulate him.  He insists he’s been painting all day. Freddie wins the bet and Lily cringes as she remembers patting the bunny on his bum!  They wonder who it was.

Tony’s still feeling the effects from Sunday’s cricket training.  He admits to Brian that he unwittingly spilt the beans about the threat to Berrow to Tracy and Jazzer.  Talk turns to Tamworth pigs as Tony’s looking to source them for the rewilding site.  He says he’s really enjoying his advisory role for the project; Rex and Kirsty talk a lot of sense.  While Tony champions the nurturing aspect of rewilding, Brian wonders where food will come from if land continues to be taken out of production. Adam joins the healthy debate. 

Adam and Brian discuss the impact of Chris and Amy’s liaison on Alice.  Brian says that Jennifer’s furious with Chris; she’s worried it will push Alice back to alcohol.  Adam says Chris is a free agent although it’s not very classy getting together with Amy. Brian agrees and understands Jennifer’s concerns, but he has faith in Alice. She’s determined to win custody of Martha and won’t do anything to jeopardise that.
