    Emma discusses wedding buffet plans with Jazzer and Tracy. She gets side-tracked, bragging about George impressing Martyn Gibson at Berrow. Irritated Tracy walks out, leaving Jazzer to cover that the reception is in his remit. He wants a Scottish feast. Once Emma has left, Tracy vents to Jazzer. She can’t stand Emma crowing about George, when it was him who persuaded Brad to lie to the police. Jazzer advises Tracy to forgive and forget. Emma will be at her hen party after all. Tom is helping Adam with the first Edible Forest Garden herb harvest. Tom reveals he’s going to try to persuade Tracy to let him have Chris for their T20 team. They go on to talk about Brian and his lack of interest in Home Farm. Adam confesses he’s enjoyed filling in for Stella and reconnecting with big arable. Even with her pushing through changes, he still thinks the family farm could benefit from his ideas. However, with Brian lost in grief, it’s hard to tell who’ll be overseeing its future. Alice has dropped into the village shop. Susan picks her brains about where to hold Tracy’s hen night, but without success. Susan mentions that today is Ed and Emma’s wedding anniversary, prompting Alice to mention that it’s Brian and Jennifer’s anniversary next Monday. Alice feels compelled to mark it in some way, such as going somewhere connected with Jennifer, but Brian doesn’t seem keen. Later, Susan suggests that even if Brian doesn’t want to, Alice should follow her instincts and do what’s right for her.

    Susan drops in on Tracy and Jazzer, who is still at home with a broken ankle. Having briefly discussed Jim’s obsession with opposing the electric charging station, they move on to Tracy’s hen party this Friday. Susan has recruited Chelsea, Lynda, Jolene and Emma, amongst others. However, they still haven’t decided where to go. They discuss various options – chocolate-making, laser tag, karaoke – but Tracy doesn’t want anything fancy or, more importantly, expensive. A drink with mates is fine. Susan doesn’t think that will do and confides in Jazzer. She’ll at least find a special location for it. Tony talks to Pat. He’s determined to keep on at the police until they refer Rob’s kidnapping of Jack to the Crown Prosecution Service. Tony’s confident Rob will be charged, but Pat doesn’t want to jump the gun. Meanwhile Helen tries to focus on work, especially making Open Farm Sunday a success. Her positive mood is destroyed when Tony brings her a letter from Stephen South, Rob’s solicitor, formally requesting access to Jack. Pat and Tony remind her there’s a Prohibited Steps Order in place, but Helen frets that Rob has found a way to challenge it. Having failed to reach her solicitor Dominic, Tony calls Anna Tregorran for advice. While Anna says they can refuse a change to the Child Arrangement order, she also offers to meet Helen later in the week while visiting her mother, Carol. Helen worries that Anna knows something she’d prefer to tell her in person. Does she think Helen may have a fight on her hands?

    Adam and Tom are in Little Croxley cricket pavilion preparing for the match. They discuss Tom’s captaincy of next weekend’s village T20. Tom has a head start on Tracy having already recruited players, including Adam, to his team. They’re determined to nab Chris before Tracy gets to him. Later, Chris completes an impressive batting innings, despite turning his ankle. Tom and Adam try to persuade him to join their T20 side, but Chris reveals that Tracy has already used family ties to compel him to join hers. He’d rather play for Tom, but he’s not brave enough to disappoint his aunt. Buoyed by their victory over Little Croxley, Tom vows to stand up to Tracy. Helen and Lee are trying to celebrate Jack’s birthday at a restaurant with an outdoor pirate play area. Helen’s on edge, knowing now that Rob wants to see Jack. She thought going somewhere away from Ambridge would feel safer, but the crowded location feels anything but. Lee attempts to reassure her, but she snaps at him. When Ian arrives with Xander they try to look forward to visiting Lee’s daughters in San Francisco at Christmas, but Helen remains tense. Ian suggests they go back to Honeysuckle Cottage, where he’ll make pizza. They do so and Helen is much happier. Jack’s having a great time. Lee worries to Ian that Ian’s better at handling Helen’s anxiety than he is. Nonetheless, when Adam returns from the match, Ian confides his fears. With Rob back on the scene, he’s worried what will be next.

    Despite the issues driving the current owner to sell up, Tom’s optimistic he and Natasha could make the Evesham market garden work. More cautious Natasha points out the childcare issues. Overhearing this Helen offers support with childcare. Helen then mentions a last-minute change of venue for Jack’s birthday party, before Tom comes clean about the potential move to Evesham. Frantic Helen tells them they can’t go, revealing that Rob phoned last week. Helen insists on Tom telling Pat about the changed venue, which Lee suggested to make them less of a sitting target. Despite Natasha’s reassurances Helen’s clearly struggling with her fear of manipulative Rob. George has a rude awakening at Berrow Farm when Hannah tells him he’ll be working indoors for her, not outdoors with Neil. Cocky George resents Hannah telling him what to do and reckons he got the job because he was the best candidate. She points out his lack of experience and says Martyn only chose him because he’s much cheaper to employ. Hannah leaves George to clean up the pig pen on his own. A man in the shop tells Natasha he’s looking for Helen Titchener. Natasha flares up, assuming he’s Rob, before Helen identifies him as Miles, Rob’s brother. Miles reveals it was him who called last week and claims Rob doesn’t know he’s here. Miles tells Helen that things have changed and Rob would love to see Jack. Natasha’s dead against it, while Helen declares that Rob will never lay eyes on her children again, before telling Miles to get out.

    Emma impresses on George the importance of being helpful and well-behaved while he’s staying at Ambridge View. George thinks Emma should be happy about his job. She is, but when Emma asks about his fundraising for the fostering charity, George is evasive. Emma then cajoles George into thanking Neil for the job. He’s got to pay rent now he’s earning, though. George grudgingly agrees. Later, Neil tells Emma it wasn’t him that got George the job, it was all down to Martyn. Emma assumes Martyn must think highly of George, just like Oliver. She’s proud of how George is really making something of himself. Erin doesn’t come to Ambridge, instead meeting Adam in Felpersham. She shares some warm memories of Paddy and they talk about what might have been if Adam had met him. Adam does though have the photographs Erin has sent him. He admits how tough it’s been, losing both parents so quickly. Erin consoles him: at least they’ve met up and she’s been able to fill him in on details about Paddy. When Adam proposes visiting her in Dublin, Erin makes excuses to put him off, and says a quick goodbye. Deflated Adam meets up with Brian, who assures him that it’s not his fault if Erin doesn’t want to take things further. Brian praises Adam as a dedicated family man, before worrying about taking over from Stella while she’s away. Adam’s offer to help out at Home Farm next week, if Tony agrees to letting him go, is gratefully received.
