Things get desperate at Bridge Farm, and Emma struggles to maintain control.

Neil calls George into his office to talk about George’s bad attitude towards Hannah. She’s his boss and deserves respect. George promises to do better. Later, Emma drops into Ambridge View with a bag of George’s things. Neil assures Emma that George is being a good houseguest. He’s got Susan hooked on a computer game. However, Neil is concerned about George backchatting Hannah. Emma says she’ll have a word. When she does, George insists it’s just banter. Hannah’s got it in for him, just like she used to with Neil. Nonetheless, Emma encourages him to be polite. She wonders if George has had any more thoughts about fundraising for Caroline’s favourite charity, but George evades the question, leaving Emma frustrated.
Tony is still ruminating over the CPS’s decision not to charge Rob. He and Tom talk about their own decision to pull out of Open Farm Sunday. With everyone feeling so anxious, it would be too much to take on. As for Rob, Tony thinks all they can do is wait for his next move. Later, Kirsty tells Tom that Helen has gone to speak to her solicitor, Dominic, about Rob’s application for access to Jack. It’s the first Tom has heard of it. He thinks it will hit Pat and Tony hard. Kirsty reassures Tom, if it pulls the family together then Rob will have failed. Tom seeks Tony out, who dreads the possibility of having to supervise Jack’s contact time with Rob again. Tom tells Tony they have to stick together. That way, they take away Rob’s power.

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