She jostles behind the bar with Tina. Terry asks Seth to speak to Betty about coming back to work in The Woolpack. Seth agrees, but only when a free pint is offered.

Frank asks to see Zak's rent book and tenancy agreement. Zak says that a gentleman's word is his b

Summary: Linda is in intensive care. Jan and Ned wait and worry. The doctor tells them that Linda will be okay, but that she took a massive overdose of a veterinary drug.

Jan and Ned take their anger out on Zoe and Emma and are particularly angry that they knew about Linda's pregnancy. Jan wants to know why Zoe did not come and tell them herself. Tina flirts with Vic in front of Viv and mentions that she likes sharing her bath with Terry. She also manages to insult Betty on the way out of the post office.

Sarah reminds him that if Robert had been able to talk to them, perhaps he would never have run away. Linda has an emotional chat with her mum. Jan comforts her. She wants to know if Linda meant to harm the baby or herself. Linda doesn't know. She just wanted her ordeal to be over. Betty tries to get Biff to confide in her. He tells her that he is worried about someone he cares for. Rachel is insisting that Kathy is going to be Joseph's godmother. Chris reminds her that Kathy is his ex-wife, but Rachel feels that the fact that she was at Joseph's birth is more important.

She is also determined to help the Dingles in their fight against Frank. Chris despairs over her determination. Jan warns Ned to keep away from the Weirs. Dave tells Biff about Kathy's ultimatum.

Betty is gloating over Vic and Viv because she and Seth have received an invitation to the Tates christening and they haven't. She and Viv decide to go to the Save the Dingles meeting together.

Biff reminds him that Kim will then make sure that Ned does not get the Holdgate tenancy. Nick thinks that it will be funny to play a trick on Frank and take his mind off the Dingles - he wants to call off the next shoot without Frank finding out. Biff is not keen on the idea.

He just doesn't want her putting Joseph at risk. Tina admits to Nellie that she has never been dumped before. Nellie says that it probably won't be the last time.

Summary: Viv has set up a box in the post office in which people can donate food for the Dingles. Vic does not agree with it, but as usual he is overruled and even Scott and Kelly contribute. Kim reads the Hotten Courier. The headline reads - 'Farm Siege ends in Police Battle'. Frank is upset that everybody seems to be on the side of the Dingles, even his own son.

Meanwhile, Sarah arrives at the farm with half a dozen cub scouts who have had their kitchen tent pinched. She has agreed to make them all breakfast. Frank has a confrontation with the Dingles.

She wants to get involved in helping young people appreciate the countryside. Jack agrees to think about it. He does not have much choice when he sees Sarah's enthusiasm. Kim goes to see the family solicitor behind Frank's back. She claims that she is worried because Frank has fallen out with Chris. She wants to know the financial situation should anything happen to Frank. He explains that Frank's estate would be divided between Kim and any surviving children. Frank has also placed a substantial amount in a trust fund for his grandson. Kim does not think this is fair because the bulk of Frank's wealth then goes to people who show no interest in the company. She obviously wants to make her position more secure.

Nick wants to tell Frank about the shoot, but Biff tells him to keep quiet and that it will blow over. Betty calls to see the Dingles and asks when they are thinking of moving on.
