Before his driving lesson Paul admits to feeling terrified. As a calming measure Ruairi gets Paul to talk through what he’s doing as he drives. Paul’s then thrilled that he’s driving safely and Ruairi tells him how much he likes him.

When Lilian and David’s paths cross near Brookfield they compare notes on turning down Eddie’s overpriced hay. Lilian’s really worried about running out though and so’s David, who suggests they work together to try and knock Eddie’s price down. But when David rings Eddie he tells him that he’s sold the hay to another farmer, at full price. Later, Eddie apologises to Lilian if he came across as smug. She wants to talk about how bad she feels after what happened to George, though. Eddie then confesses he can’t forgive George and doesn’t understand what’s wrong with him.

When Amber turns up for her haircut from Chelsea, she soon realises that Brad has told Chelsea everything. Chelsea justifies that Brad needed someone to talk to, before asking if Amber’s alright. Amber still hasn’t told George about the baby, saying she went away to Ireland to sort out her feelings for him – and Brad – but it didn’t help. Then George was so happy when she got back that they decided to try for a baby. But it came as a real shock to discover she was pregnant after George was so awful to everyone. Listening to Amber then praise Brad by comparison Chelsea tells Amber she should be with Brad, but Amber doesn’t see how they can be together.
