Summary

Jim takes a dim view when Justin doesn’t turn up for his early shift at the shop. When Justin finally appears she says he’s too busy with tomorrow’s Borsetshire Business Angel Award event. He wants Jim to complete a form verifying his public service work at the shop. Jim tells Justin to leave the form with him. With no sign of the form imminent, Justin later visits Jim. Jim obfuscates. He wants to weigh his words, do a proper job. Justin impresses on him that he needs the form by tomorrow, and Jim assures him it will be ready for collection – at the shop. Helen’s tetchy with Natasha. Eventually Natasha discovers what’s behind Helen’s tension, and she sympathises. No need, responds Helen. She’s applied for a non-molestation order against Rob and she’s managing, for now. But she admits she can’t shake the thought of Rob causing trouble. She’s had an email from his first wife, Jess, who wants to see her. Helen hopes Rob’s not manipulating Jess. Natasha offers to go with Helen as a safety net. Oliver reports to George the break in at Grey Gables. George covers, but is taken aback when Oliver says the bench that was smashed was Caroline’s memorial and meant a lot to him. Guilty George reassures him – Oliver needs to put this behind him. Later George offers to fix the bench. Oliver’s instinct is to engage a professional, but he’s persuaded. He mentions the police are involved, and alarmed George calls Brad to brief him on what to say if he’s questioned.
