Plot[]
Chris is growing increasingly annoyed with Jack for being too easy with Wilf – his tenant farmer. With his patience running out, Chris sends Jack back to the farm with the threat of eviction if Wilf doesn’t pay up. But Jack is stunned by the poverty that greets him, and it soon becomes apparent that Wilf is struggling to keep his head above water. He has been struck by the foot and mouth epidemic, and his wife has left him. It comes as some surprise to Chris, then, when Jack returns with a wad of cash from Wilf – but all is not as it seems. Tension continues to mount between Jarvis and Edna – but does it mask a spark between the couple? Edna refuses to believe that they are anything but arch enemies and, as if to prove a point, all hell breaks loose when she spies Jarvis lighting another bonfire in his back garden. But she is more alarmed to see what he is about to torch and rushes round to try and talk some sense into her neighbour. Elsewhere in the village, Louise is preparing for the ordeal that will be the inquest and relies heavily on support from Diane and Ollie is becoming concerned that she may have to withdraw from her A-Levels due to the amount of work she missed as a result of her mum's death.
