There鈥檚 a blast from the past for Helen, and Joy faces an unexpected issue.
Joy and Mick are dazzled by the opulence and tech at Home Farm. As they look round, closely followed by the robot vacuum cleaner, Joy marvels at the white and shiny kitchen. A bearded dragon in a tank freaks her out, but Mick promises he鈥檒l take responsibility for feeding duties. Joy needs a cuppa, but everything in the house is operated from a master controller, which they can鈥檛 find鈥� With no heating or cooking facilities, they鈥檙e forced to snuggle under a duvet with takeaway pizza. This isn鈥檛 quite what Joy expected.
Kirsty confides to Fallon it wouldn鈥檛 surprise her if the sale of Beechwood fell through. Fallon tries to reassure her. Fallon admits she鈥檚 starting to miss Harrison. She鈥檚 hoping to take her mind off it by focusing on getting her dad鈥檚 job back for him.
Clarrie can鈥檛 work out why Bridge Farm has failed its cleanliness tests. As far as she鈥檚 concerned everywhere鈥檚 spotless. She hints that the blame might lie with Chelsea, but later apologises to Pat for her meanness. She shouldn鈥檛 have said it. Pat tries to rally her; it鈥檚 been an awful time for everyone. Later Helen points out some dirt on a freezer to Clarrie. Clarrie鈥檚 affronted and they bicker. Pat interrupts them with the news that Summer Orchard has had a cancellation from a longstanding customer. This situation is destroying everything. Finally Helen receives good news; they have a taker for the waste milk. But then she discovers the offer鈥檚 from Celia Sparrow.
