Kirsty admires the rewilding land. Phoebe enthuses it will be even better once the Longhorns are let loose on it – exciting! Phoebe comments her dad was online chatting with Leyla into the small hours. Kirsty notes they’re due to meet up soon. Phoebe hopes he knows what he’s doing after Leyla’s previous no-show. Kirsty suggests Roy should just have fun. But she does acknowledge it’s odd there’s no trace of Leyla online. Later she shares some information with Phoebe: Leyla’s a biology teacher, and Kirsty’s found a photo of a school group. They have some fun trying to guess which one in the picture is Leyla.
Brian pulls no punches with Alice, laying it on the line that she’s in dreamland if she thinks she can run away and start a new life elsewhere. Jennifer is kinder, desperate to keep her daughter onside, and close to home. She admonishes Brian for his attitude – she doesn’t think she could cope if she didn’t know where Alice was. Later Alice bumps into Alan, who reassures her he’s still there for her. She shares her experiences at the rehab centre and why she left. She needs to get away from Ambridge and the demands of family. Alan visits Willow Cottage. He’s arranged for Alice to stay with his daughter Amy. Both Alice and Amy are up for it, and Brian and Jennifer will know Alice is safe. Grateful Jennifer’s full of thanks. This might be exactly what Alice needs.
