Lynda is a bit more hopeful about her Christmas show, but she's rather clutching at straws.

Helen tells Ian that Tom thinks they should rebrand everything using his now successful name. Helen feels extremely resistant to this idea. It feels like a bit of a takeover to her.

Debbie calls Adam, thinking she should have heard from him by now. It's a prickly conversation as Adam lists his reasons for opposing the big dairy that Debbie has proposed. She offers him a bit more land for his livestock within the scheme, and Adam is furious. They're talking about a massive change to the way Home Farm operates. Their major income sources would be radically different. And he is being treated like a junior partner. Plus he thinks Borchester Land will have too much control over the Home Farm part of the venture. They've always been independent. Irritated, Debbie ends the call.

Later, she's critical of Brian. They should have involved Adam from the start. He has very strong feelings about it all, and Brian is just going to have to get him on side. He must talk to Adam. Brian says he will.
