Summary

Adil’s preparing for some Sunday work; he buys peppermints to cheer him. Joy reminds him it’s the fête next Sunday. Lynda joins them and declares she’s looking forward to putting her feet up this year. Privately, Joy admits to Lynda she’s not happy with the Grundy fête arrangements. Lynda asserts they need to learn to live with it not being as polished this year. But Kirsty too calls on Lynda’s services; she and Rex have a rewilding display planned, and they’re not sure what’s going on. Lynda agrees to have a word with Eddie. Later, she reports to Joy that she was fobbed off by the Grundys. She fears something fishy’s going on. Joy tells her the Hollerton Silver Band has been cancelled, which is enough for Lynda to feel the need to recruit an undercover operative. Joy suggests Brad Horrobin. Kirsty and Tom chat about Johnny’s new adventure, and explore how they feel about the news that Rob’s dying. For Tom, it’s a good thing, though sometimes he wonders if it’s real, or if it’s a set-up. Kirsty’s questions prompt Tom to ask Helen how she’s doing. Helen says she’s okay; it’s time to focus on the farm again. She suddenly remembers she needs to put in her bid to supply Grey Gables with cheese, and renew her supplier accreditation before it lapses. They meet with Adil, who’s just dismissed his recently appointed Head of Food. Adil disappoints them; he already has a mozzarella supplier. Helen declares she won’t give up. She’ll get this contract signed and sealed.
