Adrian and Sally are back
Them from Environmental health (where did Ken MacLeod go to? Does it take three to shut them down, only 2 to re-open?).
They take their time to do their checks of the freshly steamed Bridge Farm – to the point where Tony could do nowt but tend to his cabbages.
But no need to worry – Bridge Farm has been given the all clear.
[Pat] “The E. coli has been dealt with and we’re open for business”
Which is great news.
Doesn’t mean to say that everything’s back to normal, though.
With less orders coming in, Helen even suggests that they give up on making ice-cream in the short term.
Blimey.
Get Ed to talk to Radio Borchester
Radio Borchester call to ask Pat to be interviewed by Wayne Folley tomorrow.
I’m not sure if Wayne Folley is meant to be one of those Jeremy Vine (or even Jeremy Kyle) types, but Pat should ask Ed to do the interview.
Remember when he played a blinder when he was interviewed about TB in cows, a few years back?
I did help that the interviewer was a lady who seemed to be quite attracted to Ed …
Lilian appalled at Alice’s career path
Lilian bumps into Alice at Grey Gables. She assumes that Alice is also there for a bit of pampering – so is shocked when Alice tells her that she’s trying to find Caroline to ask for a job.
Lilian sounded quite disgusted at the idea of Alice being a Chamber Maid (even though she’s done it before):
[Lilian] “But changing people’s sheets …”
[Alice] “Oh it’s fine Aunty Lilian, don’t be such a snob”
[Lilian] “Me?”
Aye, you!
Needs must, Lilian.
The Tom Archer brand must be protected
Honestly, I never know why I’m ever surprised at Tom being a selfish, overbearing, arrogant bad man.
He’s yet again harassing Pat and Tony about sacking Clarrie.
But this time he openly admits that his precious ‘Tom Archer’ brand is at stake.
Fair enough – but he surely could have kept quiet about being worried about his wee sausages, when it’s actually decades of his parent’s work which is most at risk?
What a prat.
Helen’s on Tom’s side
That’s more like it.
Helen being quite clinical, practical and controlling.
Phew! I thought we’d totally lost her to Henry!
Helen agrees that they should sack Clarrie.
[Helen] “It would be a really strong statement that we’ve dealt with it”
[Tony] “I don’t care, I’m not turning Clarrie into a scapegoat .. it’s not the way I want to ruin this farm … Clarrie came back in good faith”
Ronnie wants a barge
Ronnie didn’t say no to Chris’ Plan B (of buying his core business, but only leasing the premises for the first while).
He listened. But, he was planning on buying a barge. So likely does want all the money upfront.
So he’s away to ponder it.
Darrell Paulhill – who he?
He’s the chap that’s also interested in buying Ronnie’s Farrier business.
Alice mentioned him to Lilian – and his name rings a bell for her.
Will Lilian be able to pull a fast one for Chris and Alice? If only to spot Alice having to change other people’s sheets …
