Milly Robson
Is nine, and is in intensive care after eating Bridge Farm ice-cream.
Pat’s obviously fretting over the folks that are still in hospital – she’s worried about her business, but she also would rather no-one died.
To add to her woe, she’s very aware that she could be sued.
[Pat] “I never imagined anyone might sue me because I hurt their child”Helen’s not much help.
Pat asked her whether she would sue if something like this happened to her Henry – she said yes.
Which was the truth, but I think she could have lied. Just this once.
Course, Pat’s right that if they do get sued – it’ll mean court – and it’ll mean this won’t go away for years.
Oh Clarrie. If only …
Sabrina tells Jim Lloyd to shut up
Bridge Farm has been named (and shamed) in the Borchester Echo as the source of the E. coli outbreak.
They used the rather bland statement Tony had written – but also focused on the kids (and slight mentions of the adults) in the article.
Seems this prompted Jim to talk about how bacteria develops even more lethal forms. But he met with strong opposition for being rather unsupportive of Pat, Tony and co.
[Helen] “Sabrina told him to shut up in the end .. .told him he wasn’t helping”
On yersel Sabrina!
Mr Foxy better scarper
As Will’s going up after him with a shotgun.
Which is fair enough. Mr Foxy did get half a dozen of Will’s birds (without even asking!).
The bank manager says no
Chris was still not very confident about his meeting with his bank manager. He’s not sure whether he’ll be seen as “ambitious” or “merely out to lunch”.
Chris was right to be nervous.
His bank manager did say no.
Although he thought Chris has a very sound business idea, and wanted to support him, the bank couldn’t stretch to £200,000.
But the bank then gave Chris a plan B.
That Chris buys the core business from Ronnie (the client list, and such), but he only rents the premises, with an option to buy later.
So it’s now down to whether Ronnie will agree to that.
(and I must get the name of Chris’ Bank Manager. Stunning that he gave Chris an option – my Bank manager tends to say ‘no’ until he eventually relents after a few weeks of cajoling and shouting …).
Nic’s home
Nic is loving that her kid are turning into country kids:
[Nic] “And I never want to live anywhere else”
Which, as Will points out, is a complete change of heart from when Nic first moved to Ambridge.
Ah – welcome home indeed, Nic.
What time is it in Las Vegas?
Alice and Chris are waiting to start the celebrations of their first year anniversary when it hits the right time in Las Vegas.
They have something to celebrate with the bank’s agreement to a Plan B – so when the right time comes, they start a very private celebration …

I'm not sure what it would take to stop Helen being pompous and self-righteous. Her mother is distraught and she rubs salt into the wound by telling her she'd sue her if it had happened to Henry. Good grief !! She is proving everyone who thinks she is a pain in the neck that they are not wrong. As you would say, pfft !!!
Yup - Helen doesn't do herself any favours. You're right that a wee white lie wouldn't have hurt. She can be so like Tom sometimes (ugh!)
