David is worried about Ruth, and the weather takes a turn for the worse.

Ruth and David need to talk about her mum's future. Heather will be allowed home after an assessment.

Adam has still to hear about the current contract to farm the Estate. David's bemused. Refusing to think about the new road, he urges Adam to press on.

The marquee is up for Sunday's baby naming ceremony. Lynda, Fallon and Emma have laid the table cloths and napkins and strung up the bunting - all as per Leonie's careful instructions.

Johnny has been allowed to stay in Ambridge. He's helping Ed and the other casuals pick spuds and enthusing about the apprenticeship Tony has found for him. He's going to see the course supervisor tomorrow.

Ed tells a gripped Johnny about the continued uncertainty over the future of the milk round. Johnny's eyes widen in horror as there's a loud clap of thunder. It's suddenly dark and rain buckets down, gushing over the potato field in torrents. It also plays havoc with Lynda's marquee and the naming day bunting.

David helps Jill mop out the kitchen. Neither he nor Adam have seen rain like it.

Distraught Lynda tries in vain to sweep water away. Tony, Ed and Johnny stop to help. Lynda is distraught. It's not just her garden, it's her plans for Sunday - ruined, all ruined.
