There’s more surprising news for Bridge Farm.

There’s more surprising news for Bridge Farm, and Fallon dreams big.

When Harrison lets off steam about his job to Fallon, she says if it’s getting too much, he shouldn’t have to carry on with it.  Her only concern was the impact on their finances.  Harrison acknowledges they’re a team and that any career change will affect Fallon too.  Fallon thinks back to her chat with Lynda earlier in the week when Lynda asserted how important it is to be happy.  If Harrison needs to make a change, they just need to do it together.

Ben wonders why he hasn’t seen Lee at the Laurels lately.  When Ben mentions that Sykesy’s not happy about Lee’s absence and has gone on strike with the replacement physiotherapist, Lee makes his excuses and hurries off.  Later Lee asks Ben to pass on a message to Sykesy telling him to keep up his physio, otherwise he’ll make him work twice as hard on his return!

Pat apologises to Helen for not reacting to the news about Helen’s visit to Rob in the way Helen wanted.  They were scared for Helen.  Helen explains it felt like something she needed to do.  She’s looked Rob in the eye and shown him she wasn’t frightened.  From now on everything will be through the solicitors, just like Pat and Tony had advised.  Pat says that whatever Helen does, and however uncomfortable it makes them feel, they’re always on her side.  Later Helen’s solicitor tells her that Rob’s asked for a phone meeting tomorrow with everyone concerned.  Helen doesn’t know why.  They’ll find out the reason tomorrow.

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