Officially finished work to concentrate on Sunday’s wedding, Pip and Stella visit Lower Loxley to hear Elizabeth’s wet weather contingency plans. The brides-to-be are upbeat and confident. They’re determined to make the most of it, whatever the weather. Stella reveals to Pip that she and David have possibly fallen out over her comments about Josh. David joins them with an apology about his outburst. He does actually agree with what Stella said about Josh on Wednesday and realises he’s been a hypocrite. David asks if he can still walk Stella down the aisle after all, and she happily accepts. Following a frosty encounter with Freddie at breakfast, Vince sends him a voice message outlining some more responsible tasks he has for him to build his skills. Meanwhile, Freddie has a word with his mum, outlining his frustrations with her and Vince, who he thought would have shown him more support. He’s particularly disappointed in Elizabeth’s lack of belief in him to run Lower Loxley. Furious that Vince has seemingly misrepresented her, she and Vince argue. How dare he demotivate her son, someone who already struggles with self-esteem? Vince defends himself, arguing that he shouldn’t always be the bad guy when both of them have reservations about Freddie’s capabilities. Vince wants to build Freddie’s skills, but Elizabeth doesn’t think his hard man tactics are the solution for Freddie. Vince retorts that in that case she shouldn’t come crying to him next time her future livelihood is threatened.
