Summary

Frustrated Justin still hasn’t got his completed form for today’s business angel awards from Jim. Jim’s thoroughly enjoying himself, assuring Justin he’ll deliver the form himself by hand. He turns up at the venue, noting to Adil, who’s also in attendance, that Justin looks on edge. Adil finds it all amusing but admits to feeling bored by these events. Jim leaves him to his ‘posh car bingo’, and tracks down Justin, handing over the form with advice to read it before submission. Jim’s text is damning, and furious Justin tears up the form. Jim pronounces Justin underhand and immoral, coolly commenting he has the original form, which he can give to the judges – unless Justin withdraws. Later embarrassed Justin covers to Adil for his decision to step back, insisting he’s pleased for the winner, Martyn Gibson. He’s also resigned from the shop – a necessary to concentrate on other charitable activities, Jim adds helpfully. Adil pronounces Justin an example to us all. Harrison talks to Brad about the Grey Gables break in. Brad denies all knowledge, saying first that he wasn’t there, and then that he can’t remember. Under caution Brad ties himself in knots, and ends up telling lies. Harrison goes off to speak to George to see if their stories match. Later it’s clear George has spilled the beans, and Brad’s forced to admit the truth. Tracy can see Brad was put up to staying quiet by George, and upset Brad’s sorry. Harrison points out George admitted the truth but Brad’s lied under caution, which is much more serious.
