Susan makes the best of the new situation and James is looking for support.

The dairy at Bridge Farm is running at half capacity. Pat explains that they're going to start producing ice-cream again to show the public that they have complete confidence in their own products, and to try and get back to normal.

Pat speaks to a journalist from the Borchester Echo, whose persistent questions make her angry. She worries that whatever good things she says to the press about the dairy, she'll be portrayed as cold and unfeeling.

James wishes the family had been more supportive of him and Leonie yesterday. He takes advantage of the opportunity to explain properly about their book idea to Lilian, Robert and Lynda. It becomes evident that they will need some investment from the family, but Leonie and James stress that this will allow their parents to have their own (limited) input into the project. Robert has some questions about the business plan and the technicalities of producing the book, but James and Leonie insist they're 'can-do' people. Their positive thinking will help them overcome such minor details.

The couple head home, already making plans to return for the August bank holiday Open Gardens event.
