Jim is left stunned by some life-changing news and Tracy shows her support.

Alistair is carrying out tests at Brookfield to get to the bottom of their calving issue. He and Ruth compare notes on building work. There鈥檚 a roof on Jim鈥檚 extension now, and the Brookfield Barn work is nearly finished.

Roman鈥檚 upset following a disastrous audition, so Tracy tries to console him with a trip to The Bull. He worries his age is preventing him from getting good roles. He explains the theatre was the only place he felt at home growing up, as he was a bit of a misfit at school. Tracy tells Roman what a saving grace Oliver was for her. She wonders why Roman doesn鈥檛 try making his own opportunities. He admits he鈥檚 considered it in the past, and decides to get writing instead of feeling sorry for himself.

Jim calls Alistair home from Brookfield. He explains that after he and Jazzer failed to track Michael down online, he researched local news stories as Michael had previously had run-ins with the police. Instead, he found a story announcing that Harold Jayston had been accused of historic sexual abuse after a victim came forward. He believes it must have been Michael. Jim is finding it all quite difficult to take in.
