Lynda faces a shocking accusation, and Kate has a controversial suggestion.

Outside The Bull, Jolene invites Fallon to drop in if she鈥檚 free for a coffee. Fallon and Harrison step on each other鈥檚 toes as they make breakfast. Harrison becomes distracted when a lead on Home Farm鈥檚 sheep attack comes in and rushes off.

Over breakfast with Kirsty, Kate brings up her proposal for moving Spiritual Home to Rewilding Ambridge. A message from Tom asking to talk interrupts Kate鈥檚 pitch. Kirsty is still uncertain of the baby moving, but Kate promises soon they鈥檒l be kicking her in the ribs. At Rewilding, Kirsty tries to persuade Rex to be the one to reject Kate鈥檚 plan. Tom turns up and apologies. He is really pleased for Kirsty and thinks she鈥檒l be a wonderful mother. Kirsty says she鈥檚 living on hope with this baby. Kate turns up and Rex is left to tell her the bad news for Kirsty.

Lynda is on Village Fete duty, and Jolene agrees to run the beer tent again. Fallon swings by for that coffee, and Lynda asks when Fallon is free for fete matters. Fallon suggests this afternoon which delights Lynda. Jolene states she must be bored without Harrison to be spending a Friday afternoon on the village fete. Lynda asks how Harrison is settling back in, stating from experience that it鈥檚 not always a smooth process. Harrison arrives to speak to Lynda on official business. The DNA from the sheep attack has come back and reveals it was a Doberman. Lynda鈥檚 Monty is the only Doberman in the village. Lynda insists there鈥檚 no way it could be Monty.
