Disaster strikes at Â鶹ԼÅÄ Farm, and Brad is determined to put things right.
Out for an evening walk, Mia updates distracted Brad on George moving out of Little Grange and setting his sights on No.1 The Green, and the hash Eddie’s made of organising the fete. But Brad isn’t listening. He has a confession to make. He’s betrayed the whole Grundy family by answering Lynda’s many questions about the fete, and now Eddie’s in trouble. Mia reckons Eddie would have been found out anyway; Brad shouldn’t worry. And no-one will say anything as it’s all turned out fine. But Brad insists Eddie will find out who dobbed him in, and he’ll be for it. He knows these situations; the truth always comes out. He intends to confess to Eddie. Mia reiterates Brad’s done nothing wrong; in fact his actions saved the fete. Brad’s adamant – he’ll talk to Eddie first thing tomorrow.
Stella and Ruth watch the barley harvest at Â鶹ԼÅÄ Farm. Ruth offers to take Weaver back to the bungalow and feed him. As she takes his lead Stella’s distracted by a call from Alistair. Ruth loses control of Weaver, who runs off. It’s soon clear he’s been hit by Ed’s trailer. In the vet surgery Stella awaits news. She insists to Ruth that it wasn’t her fault; a hare had caught Weaver’s attention. Ruth says Ed feels awful too, but again Stella reassures her. Alistair confirms that as a greyhound, Weaver would have a high prey drive and it’s doubtful anyone could have stopped him. He’s being treated, but Stella needs to be prepared for a difficult decision.
