Plot
Aaron nervously calls Ed to ask him out for a drink, but soon cancels to help Adam, who is struggling at the farm with a broken roof. Later, Ed arrives with two teammates, and they step in to help fix the barn roof. Holly takes an instant shine to Ed, but it's not long before Aaron gets the confirmation he wants - Ed is gay. Oblivious to this, Holly continues to flirt with Ed. Later, Ed is gutted to see Aaron and Adam share a moment of closeness. Once the job is done, Aaron is nervous as he stays behind with Ed while the others head to the pub. Ed asks about Adam, but Aaron is quick to explain they are just friends. Moments later, Ed and Aaron share their first kiss. Meanwhile, Pollard is in a foul mood over Val leaving and takes his bad temper out on the guests. Amy thinks he should contact Val and have it out with her. Under pressure from Amy and David, Pollard agrees to visit Val in Portugal. However, as Pollard gets increasingly frustrated trying to book the flight, he is aghast to discover that Val has emptied their joint bank account. Elsewhere, Chas is stunned by Debbie's anger when she hears Cameron is staying with her, while Rachel and Sam persuade Declan to give Zak a job at Home Farm.
