Kirsty discovers Philip setting up a new Smart TV. She wishes he’d told her he was buying one. He apologises. He feels like he’s messed up. Kirsty says she doesn’t mind, really. It’s just driven home how different their incomes are. She’s scared that going for the Wildlife Trust job means she’ll never be able to contribute the same financially to the relationship. Philip thinks she’s perfect for the job. She has to go for it. They’re a partnership and he really doesn’t care about money.

At Bridge Farm, Lilian asks Tom to look out for Tony. She can tell he isn’t happy. He gets so worked up and it isn’t good for him. Later, Tom sits down with Tony to have a word. Tony’s concerned that Tom will put weeks of effort into a pitch that will amount to nothing. Tony’s been losing sleep worrying that the family will be torn apart. Tom decides he and Natasha will raise the capital for their orchard village another way. Tony thinks they’re a powerhouse, they can make any business succeed.

Over tea, Lilian tells Peggy that she felt hurt that she wasn’t even invited to the meeting.

She stresses to Lilian that she shouldn’t ever doubt her feelings for her. And she’ll talk to Tony – when he’s ready to listen.
