Eddie puts his plan into action and David has a crisis of confidence
Roman gets stuck into planning rehearsals for the Christmas Show – Freddie has happily accepted Roman’s offer to take on the directing. Roman’s grateful for Tracy for suggesting it. Tracy wishes they had more opportunities to be alone but her home is never empty.
Roman meets Oliver and David for a social-distanced rehearsal and is keen for them to play an ice-breaker game which ends up taking up all of their allotted time much to David’s frustration. Tracy’s keen to hear how the rehearsal went and Roman reports her reservations about David held true. Tracy’s eager to hear what hidden truths Roman will extract from other villagers.
Eddie’s bothered about mislaying his phone because he wants to follow any updates on a detectorist forum he’s signed up to. He tells Will that George helped him set up a fake profile. He wants to win the confidence of the other people on there and he’s posted the Jetton found at Grange Farm years ago as a recent find of his at Brookfield.
Will returns Eddie’s phone which had been taken to school by Poppy. Eddie’s excited to see the response he’s had to his Jetton post. Will gets cross when he discovers that Eddie’s promised to get Poppy a phone. Later, Will puts his foot down – his seven-year-old is not having a phone. Meanwhile, Eddie is invited to a detectorist meet up on Thursday. Will’s concerned for his safety, but Eddie’s defiant – no outsiders are going to get their hands on Ambridge treasure!
