Jennifer, Lilian and Tony put on a united front.
Tony's not happy to learn that Tom's getting grief from Brian over Tom Archer bacon, which means plans for Bridge Farm bacon will have to be put on the back burner. All Brian's interested in is the bottom line!
Borchester Land has rejected Tony and Pat's offer of 750,000 pounds. Tom wants to up the offer, but Tony knows they can't really afford to.
To Neil's dismay, Tom halves his order for weaners. Tom decides its time to take on an assistant. Neil's not surprised that Tom is finding things difficult.
Tom asks after Christopher and Alice. Neil thinks Christopher has more fun with Alice than doing up the flat. No work will be done this weekend, as Neil's on the hunt for a bell-simulator for St. Stephen's.
Pat, Lilian and Jennifer arrive at Felpersham Hospital. Peggy is asleep and looking fragile. Jack's staying with Lilian and Matt, which they agree is an awful situation, but their options are limited. Lilian can manage for another day or two until they know how badly Peggy has been affected by the stroke. At the moment Lilian can't focus on anything else except hoping Peggy will pull through.
