Suspicions are raised for Harrison and Joy realises a new approach might be needed.

Jolene鈥檚 looking forward to Christmas dinner at Lower Loxley, but Joy鈥檚 stressed about the Tractor Run. Jolene doesn鈥檛 understand why Joy isn鈥檛 more relaxed, but Joy outlines the struggle she鈥檚 had just getting all the farmers on the same page about the rules, plus there鈥檚 the health and safety. She dreads thinking what would happen if anything goes wrong and she has to sort it out. They both laugh at the thought of Eddie dressed as an angel in a bedsheet and thermals, though. With Alan and Akram riding motorbikes, plus Zainab on her moped, Joy happily takes up Jolene鈥檚 suggestion they could be the three wise men. But she鈥檚 still short of marshals and as for the running order - how on earth can she navigate that without offending anyone?

Harrison senses something鈥檚 different as he snuggles up with Fallon, before there鈥檚 a ring at the door. It鈥檚 Kenton delivering a basket of goodies, but when Fallon overreacts to an upstairs door banging Kenton senses something鈥檚 amiss and Fallon tells him about George yesterday. Fallon鈥檚 really angry, hating that George can make her feel like that. She begs Kenton not to tell Harrison, fearing his reaction. But after Fallon goes out of the room Harrison puzzles over why Fallon鈥檚 so sad, worrying it could be him. Without admitting what Fallon鈥檚 just told him Kenton assures Harrison that whatever鈥檚 bothering Fallon he can pretty much guarantee it鈥檚 not him.
