Tom gets something off his chest, and Ben has a brainwave.
It鈥檚 Kirsty鈥檚 birthday and she jokes about Helen setting up the light show in her honour. Helen admits she feels better than she did the other day, when she had to go to the police station. Now they鈥檝e just got to wait and see if Rob will be prosecuted. But until they know she鈥檒l do her best to try and forget about him.
Later, Kirsty asks Helen again about teaming up for Eurovision. She suggests Helen could cook a traditional Spanish dish while Kirsty talks about the cultural significance of what she鈥檚 making. Helen agrees to take a look at the recipe first. After Natasha pops in, looking for Tom, Helen reports to Kirsty things aren鈥檛 going well between them, but nobody knows why.
Ben recounts how a booking came in for the Brookfield B&B just before Lynda asked him if they could host Rylan. So, frustratingly, now they can鈥檛. Ruth and Ben reflect on Sykesy鈥檚 visit. Ruth鈥檚 not sure they could do the same again for other Laurels residents. Ben thinks they鈥檇 be missing a trick by not running more farm visits, especially seeing how Bridge Farm are diversifying. Ruth invites Ben along to the Bridge Farm Coronation Illumination preview tonight.
Tom finally comes clean to Natasha about what鈥檚 bothering him. It鈥檚 the modelling job the twins did recently 鈥� they should never have done it. Natasha鈥檚 relieved Tom鈥檚 not telling her he doesn鈥檛 love her anymore. They agree 鈥� no more modelling for the twins. Then, just as they kiss, the Coronation Illumination lights up Bridge Farm.
