Episode 2403 (18th August 1998)

Plot
Big shocks are in store for both the Glover and Dingle households as lawyer Laura pulls tight the Home Farm purse-strings. One minute poor Zak is offering sympathy to Ned after he is handed an eviction notice, the next he finds himself in exactly the same position. Laura tells the deflated Dingles they can buy their home and the land with it, if they can come up with £6,000 in six weeks. Biff who unwittingly delivered the eviction notice to the Glovers is furious with Lady Tara. Ned flies off the handle when he reads the letter and storms over to Home Farm with Roy where he has some choice words for Lady Tara, Laura and Biff. And Zoe comes in for a tough time too. Even though she wants to help fight the plans, she admits her 20% stake in the business gives her precious little ammunition. Kirsty frightens everyone when she passes out at the holiday village. A doctor tells her mother she's showing all the signs of having an eating disorder and perhaps should see a counsellor. Heather hopes her bit of good news will help - she's found the family somewhere to live. And Scott flirts outrageously with Paulette while she's waiting for her date, Roy.
