Lynda finds herself in trouble and there’s a costly error at Home Farm
Robert goes to meet Jim at the bird hide but frets about Lynda being OK on her own. Robert’s surprised to see Jim has brought another person with him - Edmund. Robert is put out about this intrusion. He leaves the hide because with three people inside safe social distancing isn’t possible. Edmund, a new resident in Ambridge, has been boasting about the rare sightings he’s had.
Alice panics when she discovers Josh can’t haul grain this week because she didn’t confirm the work with him. She finds Brian’s whisky to add to her coffee to help calm herself. She decides to call Ed as a last resort.
While gardening, Lynda’s back goes and she can’t move. It makes her feel terrible – every time she thinks she is making progress, something knocks her backwards. She screams in frustration which scares off Monty. Lynda hauls herself up through the pain to get to her bed. On the way she sees Robert but she hides her pain from him. She doesn’t want to spoil things for him so she will manage on her own.
