Lynda interferes, and Charlie gets a fright.
Keen to get out of the house for a bit, Neil's happy to help David out this afternoon. The Brookfield wheat is due to be cut this week. They discuss how Ed broke Home Farm's combine.
Neil and David agree that they need to keep the pressure up on the community about the new road, so they're off to the roadshow in the village hall later. Apparently helpful, Lynda befriends the council's speaker Gary Stevens. She extracts some information about the latest plans for the road. Stevens clearly has an agenda to sell people on the supposed benefits of Route B, while playing down the disadvantages.
Lynda also hands out SAVE leaflets. There's heated debate about the different route options. Ruth picks her moment to mention the rare Brown Hairstreak butterfly, which has been discovered on the route.
Charlie tries to manipulate the conversation and ends up leaving. On his way out, there's a crash. He's nearly hit by a brick, thrown by some teenage kids. Shaken Charlie vows to punish the culprit, whoever it is.
