Will fusses around George who refuses to leave the house for any reason. Charged with perverting the course of justice and dangerous driving, George hopes the judge will go easy as he’s pleading guilty to everything. Brian charges round and bangs on the door, demanding that George come out and face him. Terrified George hides inside until Will tells him Brian has gone. Outside the village shop as Neil and Tony attempt to calm furious Brian, his anger brings on an angina attack. Tony stays with Brian, having informed Neil that George is sacked and banned from Bridge Farm. Later as they look at the Anguses, Tony implores Brian not to let what’s happened make him ill – remembering how his own fury at Rob Titchener affected him. Neil tells Will what happened with Brian and George that he has lost his job. Angry, Neil questions whether George would ever have turned himself in, pointing out how damaging his actions were for Alice. George becomes defensive and upset, revealing how much guilt has weighed on him. He wishes Harrison had finished what he came round to do on Monday. Neil and Will are shocked to learn Harrison attacked him. Neil sits talking to George, and dissuades him from telling the police what Harrison did to him. George regrets how he’s blown everything and starts to cry. Neil comforts George and assures him he will rebuild things, step by step, like Freddie has. His Grandad assures him he’s strong enough and that he will always love him very much.
