She offers to fix his stand for him. Frank talks to Steve about the quarry. He tells him that the quarry will be close to 2 new motorway schemes. Tina raises the point about the new road going through Sugden land. She is sure that Jack will object. Frank has already got this covered though as permission for the road was granted a year before the Sugdens moved into the farmhouse and mentions that Jack should have checked his deeds more thoroughly. Steve and Frank shake hands on the deal. Seth interrupts the meeting and tells Frank that a taxi has arrived and Frank needs to pay the fare. Alan has noticed that Terry is in an unbearably good mood. Eric asks Mandy to work for him in the

Chris is telling Frank that he could hardly keep his hands off Rachel now that she has changed her image.

He feels betrayed and let down by Kathy. Chris is furious that Tina knows more about a Tate business venture than him. Frank makes it clear that Chris will have to deal with Tina for information.

Tina is trying to look after Kim. She is getting regular pains. The nurse tells her that her husband is here, but Kim is not pleased because she thinks that it is Frank. She refuses to see him. Tina tells Dave to leave. She reminds him that Frank will just have him thrown out when he arrives. She cannot believe that he still loves Kim after all that she has done to him. Andy is telling Jack and Sarah that he did not like his foster home, with the Bennetts, because they made him eat sweetcorn and he only likes beans. He just wants to stay with the Sugdens.

He tells Jack and Sarah that he wants to be a social worker when he's older. Kim looks lonely in her hospital bed. Frank admits to Zoe that he wanted to name the baby. He is worried that it could be brain damaged, but tells Zoe that he would love it all the same. He has planned toys, games, schooling. Andy and Sarah are putting up posters for the quarry meeting. Mrs Cunningham arrives at the village hall. She tells Sam that she thinks a Wedgwood plate has mistakenly gone to Eric and it is of sentimental value to her as it was a present from her husband, Billy. Sam promises to get it back from Eric. Linda and Biff meet up with Zoe. She tells them that the baby is very poorly and has had an emergency baptism. Linda thinks that Dave should know, but Biff disagrees. Sarah tells Jan about the possibility of fostering Andy. Jan is not encouraging as Andy is such a problem child. Linda tells Dave about the baby. Biff warns him that Frank will only throw him out again, but Dave is determined to see the baby. Biff goes with him. Sam explains to Eric about Mrs Cunningham's plate. Eric has already sold the plate to a dealer and only paid Mrs Cunningham £10 for a box full of stuff, despite selling the plate on for a lot more and is uninterested. It is band practice again in the post office. Dave and Biff arrive at the hospital. Dave looks through the window of the special care baby unit and gets upset. Biff leads him away, but they bump into Frank and Chris in the corridor. They call for security at the hospital and are both particularly nasty to Da

Chris is trying to talk to him about the protest meeting, but Frank is preoccupied especially when James does not appear to be in the baby unit. Dave is still desperate to see the baby. Jan and Ned try and discourage him, but he is convinced that it is his child. James is actually much better. Frank holds him for the first time. Kim doesn't seem at all interested in him. Eric is prepared to stand bail for Sam. The Dingles prepare to go to court. Kim demands that the baby is taken away as she is trying to get some rest. Sam's solicitor arrives. Eric is shocked to learn that the plate was actually worth £175 minimum. The news is not good. Sam could get three years in prison if he is sent to Crown Court for sentencing. This shocks Zak. Frank makes a point of buying everyone a drink in The Woolpack. He announces the name of his son in front of Dave and asks him if he is drinking bitter. Biff prevents Dave from hitting Frank's smug face by taking him outside. Frank follows him though and shows Dave the birth certificate. Frank is down as the father, but Dave is still convinced that he is. Frank then tells him about Kim's million pound deal. Dave cannot believe that Kim has virtually sold the baby but still insists that he is the father. Sam is in the dock. His solicitor tries to plead his innocence and the fact that he has a full-time job and a permanent home.

Kim is bored in hospital and shows no interest in her baby. She tells Frank that he will have to get someone to look after him because she has no intention of doing so. Dave is having regrets about letting Kathy go. Betty walks in on them and disapproves. The Dingles are trying to figure out a way of getting Sam over to Ireland. Tina suggests that Lisa could take him over with her when she takes her pigs. Nurse Ratcliffe talks to Frank about Kim's reaction to the baby. She assures him that Kim and James will soon be very close. Kim overhears this and smiles wryly to herself. Chris and Rachel are preparing to visit Kim. Rachel cannot understand why they are going as Chris hates Kim and has always said that Dave is the father of the baby. Steve arrives as Chris goes back in the house to get Rachel's handbag. As he picks it up, all the contents fall out including a pack of contraceptive pills. He wheels himself outside and confronts Rachel, thinking that she is seeing someone else and shouts at her in front of Steve before storming off in his chair. Sam presents Kathy with a red rose - plastic. Mrs Cunningham is in the tearooms. She has heard about Sam's trouble and wants to help him. Eric becomes aggressive with her and Sam leaps to her defense. He receives a kiss from Kathy as a reward for standing up to Eric. Rachel finds Chris in the churchyard. He has been crying.

He wants to discuss the quarry project with Chris, but is worried about local reaction and protest. He wants to hear Chris's plans. Seth and Biff find a badger sett close to the new road development. The nurse finds baby James alone in the hospital room. Zak informs Lisa about the band rehearsal that evening. Seth informs Frank about the badger sett and tells him that it is against the law to disturb the sett. Frank basically tells Seth that if he values his job, he will keep this quiet. He then receives a phone call from the hospital telling him that Kim has discharged herself. At that moment, Kim arrives back at Home Farm. She rushes into the stables to see Valentine, but finds an empty stable. Tina is the one to tell her that Valentine has been put down and tries to tell her gently. Kim cannot believe it and cries. Steve's friend chats Faye up while he is out of the way. He tells her that Steve does not deserve her and then offers her a job in his New York office as his personal assistant. The police call at Wishing Well Cottage looking for Sam. The Dingles claim that they have not seen Sam since this morning. The police suspect that they know more than they are saying, but cannot prove it. Kim is in a state about Valentine.

Eric finds himself saying yes. Seth tells Jack and Sarah about the ba

Summary: It is Ned and Jan's silver wedding anniversary. Linda brings them a card and reminds them that Dave will pick them up at 7 o'clock tonight. They hear the sound of drums coming from Wishing Well Cottage yet again. Even Butch is fed up of it. It is his first day working for Eric. Tina is hurt when Frank gives her a roasting for no particular reason. He suspects that she may have tipped Dave off about Kim's labour and resents it when she accuses Chris of being two faced. He reminds her of her place at Home Farm. Faye desperately wants Steve to make a big stand and ask her to stay on in Emmerdale. He does not want to stand in the way of her career. Butch is late on his first day. He has a long list of things that he does not do - answer phones, make tea, lift heavy things - all the things that Eric had in mind. Roy turns up to move Eric's stuff out of the way for the anniversary party. Faye has packed her cases and decides that she is better off without Steve, especially when he asks for her car keys back. He really does not seem to care about her anymore. Tom is moving into Keepers Cottage. Betty is just telling him how peaceful the village is when Faye and Steve have their final row which ends with Faye dropping the car keys down the nearest grate and roaring off in a taxi. Frank is being very cold towards Tina. He tells her the reason why. She tries to make him see that it is Chris who is most threatened by the arrival of James, but Frank cannot believe that Chris would stoop so low. Sal and Steve meet for lunch and it becomes obvious that Steve set the whole deal up with Sal to send Faye to New York. He tells Sal that he has someone else in mind for the job. Kim calls in at the vets surgery. She tells Zoe that she is going to sue her for malpractice over her misdiagnosis of Valentine's illness. Linda is worried because Zoe incriminates herself by saying that she acted as she saw fit. Kim wants compensation for Valentine's death and is actually looking forward to tak

Zoe receives a letter from Kim's solicitors about Valentine's treatment. Rachel broaches the subject of her going to work full-time for Steve with Chris. She is surprised when he thinks that it is a good idea. Tom has a black eye from the fight as well. Frank tells Charles Miller that he wants the quarry workers who were responsible for the fight to be sacked and their details giving to the police. He also reminds Kim that James is coming home from hospital today. She shows little interest. Tina informs him that the nursery is ready. Butch is boring Eric with his ambitions - he wanted to be a fireman when he was younger. Eric tries to con him into thinking that he has to pay off Sam's debts. Butch doesn't fall for it. Alan is not totally against Frank's quarry plans. He points out to a disapproving Betty that it will mean more profit for The Woolpack and that is what pays her wages. Frank insists that Biff takes a week off work on full pay. Butch makes friends with a security guard called Acky. Rachel tells Steve that she is accepting his job offer. Acky promises to put a word in with his boss for Butch. He is pleased at the thought of officially being allowed to fight. Frank brings James back to Home Farm - complete with nanny. He introduces Sophie the nanny to Kim. Sophie tells Kim that she loves horses, but this fails to win her Kim's friendship. Dave has booked a romantic meal for himself and Kathy to celebrate their new beginning. Betty tries to find out what is going on between them. Butch packs his job in with Eric. Terry tells Viv that he will not be able to come to the meeting that evening. Vic is in favour of the quarry as it will bring in extra trade. Chris has prepared details for the meeting and this impresses Frank. He shows him the plans for the proposed site and how it affects Emmerdale Fa

Summary: Frank is looking over a derelict farmhouse which he is proposing to sell to Jack and Sarah. Rachel drops Joseph off with Sarah on her first day at work. She tells Jack that Frank has not changed his mind about the quarry. They wonder why he is so keen to make even more money. Zoe finds that Melanie has stayed the night with Susie. She is appalled and treats Susie like a child in front of Melanie. Betty arrives and is intrigued. Butch is getting his uniform today. He is excited. The Dingles receive a postcard from Sam. They know that it is from Sam because it just has a cross on it. They all miss him. Susie says goodbye to Melanie. They agree to see each other again. Tina and Sophie admire James. Sophie asks Kim about James' routine, but she has no interest in him at all. Rachel arrives for work and is surprised to see that Steve is just going out with Charlie Miller, Frank's quarry manager. Susie apologises to Zoe for bringing Melanie back to the house, but that is not enough for Zoe. Mandy tries to persuade Zak to become a security man, but he thinks that it is not a real job for a true country man. Tina has checked Kim's mobile phone bill and is happy with it. Jack is blocking the way of the bulldozer on his land which borders Frank's. Rachel expresses her annoyance at Steve's involvement with the quarry. He tells her that he is not running an ethical investment business and relieves her of her duties to do with the quarry. Frank arrives for a confrontation with Jack. He finds out from Ned that work has stopped anyway because the workmen have found some old bones and coins. Frank wants Jack to listen to his proposition. Alan and Terry discuss the bones that have been discovered. Zak thinks that it might be treasure. Frank shows Jack and Sarah around the derelict farm and proposes that they move there. He has to take a call on his mobile which gives Jack and Sarah time to consider the proposal. Sarah tells Jack, they are never going to get a better offer for their

Summary: Rachel asks Sarah if she has had any luck persuading Jack to accept Frank's offer. Sarah is not surprised that Jack is clinging to his roots and wants to continue the fight. Rachel suggests that the campaign must now get help from people who have done this sort of thing before - Newbury, Twyford Down etc. She has friends from university that she can contact. Zoe is irritable and is not in the mood for teasing from Linda and Betty. She tells Betty that Susie has gone away for a few days. Marlon is tucking into a hearty breakfast made by Mandy. Zak is resentful when she refuses to make anything for him. Butch comes downstairs in his full security uniform. Zak is actually planning to go and look over the site where the old coins and bones have been found. Marlon reminds Butch that it is his job to stop anyone getting on the site and it looks like his first customer will be his father. Sophie tries to get Kim involved in looking after James, but she just isn't interested. Sophie is confused by her response. Zak appears at the gates to the quarry. He wants to check out the buried treasure. Butch is at the gates with the other security men. He asks Zak to pretend to fight so that he looks good in front of his boss. Zak agrees when he promises to pay him £10. Linda tries to get Zoe to slow down. Terry calls round to say that he has heard that Susie is away for a few days. He wonders what he should do about her job at The Woolpack. Zoe wants to keep her private life to herself, but ends up telling Terry that Susie is never coming back to Emmerdale. Zak uses wire cutters to get onto the quarry site. Chris cannot believe that Jack is turning down Frank's offer of £300,000 for the farm. He reminds Jack that Joseph has a stake in the farm as well. Jack is adamant that his children will be better off having the farm as their legacy. Butch and Acky spot Zak with his metal detector on Frank's land just as Charlie approaches in his car driven by Marlon. Acky hits Butch as a distrac

Summary: It is Sunday morning. A group of people drive through the village in a caravanette. Meanwhile, all the security men are being put through their paces by Marlon at Wishing Well Cottage as he teaches them self-defense. Zak makes fun of them and ends up being attacked by Marlon. The protesters survey the quarry site. Sarah and Rachel introduce themselves and offer Emmerdale Farm as their base. Kim seems in a chirpy mood. She is actually nice to Chris and holds James. Sophie thinks that her maternal instincts are starting to show at last. Chris is cynical. Dave calls at Holdgate Farm and asks for his exam certificates as he is planning to apply for a job. He finds out that the Glovers are going to the blessing. Marlon challenges Zak to a run with the loser buying the pies and pints at The Woolpack. Dave is looking for his certificates in the sideboard when he comes across some knitting that Jan has obviously done for James. Rachel foolishly tells Chris about the quarry protest which is planned for tonight. Terry comes into the post office and makes an excuse to get Vic out of the way so that he can talk to Viv. Alan has been to church. He has a discussion with Reverend Burns about the quarry. The security men run through the churchyard looking for Zak. Frank delights Chris by telling him that he is going to be reinstated in his will. Charles Miller does not anticipate any problems with the quarry protest. Tina is flirting with Steve. Chris tells Frank that the protesters are planning to move on the site before work starts. He asks him not to tell Rachel where he got his information from. Chris then tells Rachel about the will. Kim is two faced with Zoe, turning on her when Zoe mentions Valentine. Kim refuses to drop the action against her. Reverend Burns finds Zak resting in the churchyard and then so does Marlon and the gang. They drag him off to buy the refreshments at the pub. Frank orders Charles to start work on the quarry today. Kim overhears them arranging it. He

Summary: Zak is enjoying his new found employment, especially as it involves little work today. Frank thought it best if worked stopped on the quarry for a day, out of respect for Betty. Acky feels proud that he was the one who put Betty in hospital. Zak warns him that Betty is a popular figure, so he better watch out. Betty is still unconscious. Seth and Biff are by her bedside. Rachel has stayed at Emmerdale Farm. She wonders whether Tina has stayed the night with Steve. Sarah thinks that Rachel should warn Steve about Tina, but she intends to keep out of it. They are busy making sandwiches for the protesters. Tina plays hard to get with Steve, but they have obviously had a good night. She arranges to meet him later. He listens to a message on his answerphone from Sarah saying that Rachel is not well enough to come in to work today. Alan has a dilemma - whether to ban the security men from The Woolpack. His thought of profit wins the day. Viv is setting off for her day out to supposedly see Scott. Terry sets off at the same time. Frank telephones the hospital for a progress report on Betty. They will not tell him anything. He is in the middle of a meeting with Charles and Chris. Kim tries to disrupt them. Betty comes round. She doesn't realise that she is in hospital at first and cannot remember what happened. Viv and Terry meet up. Chris does not seem concerned about Rachel's disappearance. He presumes that she will come back when she is ready. She is busy making a speech to the protesters to keep morale high. Jack asks her what she is planning to do about Chris. Rachel is adamant that she is never going back to him and that her child is not for sale - unlike Kim's. Tom is having the day off school so that he can meet his ex-girlfriend and discuss the sale of their flat. Kelly is embarrassed when Vic tries to get him to go to the pub for a pint. Seth is bitter towards the protesters and takes it out on Tom. Marlon, Zak, Butch and Acky do not receive a warm welcome in the

Summary: Emmerdale Farm is buzzing as the protesters use it as their base. Ned moans about them because they have left gates open. Linda is talking excitedly about the wedding preparations, but Biff has to tell her that they may have to postpone the wedding as Frank has given him a months notice. That also means that they lose their house. Linda is determined that Frank will not get away with this. Viv and Terry are worrying that Tom saw them on their illicit day out together. He comes into the shop at that moment and asks them to go to the next protest meeting, but they both refuse. Kelly asks Tom to give her a lift to work. Seth is appalled that Frank has sacked Biff. Biff is worried that he will never get another job in the area once Frank spreads the word. Frank is warning Chris to sort Rachel out before she gets out of control like Kim and costs him in a fortune in a divorce settlement. Terry has bought paper plates rather than wash up in Betty's absence. Seth calls round and asks Alan to speak to Frank on Biff's behalf. Zoe is not very supportive of Linda and Biff's trouble. She claims that she is a victim as well because Kim is suing her to get at Frank. Zak scares Butch by telling him a story about the ghost of Josiah Dingle being around on Halloween. Zoe tells Linda that there is nothing she can do about Biff's trouble. Linda thinks that she could at least speak to Frank or even join the protest. Jack goes to visit Betty in hospital. He feels guilty about her accident. She reassures him that she will still give them support. Alan has asked Frank and Charlie to call in at The Woolpack. He wants him to reconsider his decision about sacking Biff. Frank is adamant that he will not be spoken to by his staff like that and Alan feels firmly put in his place. Terry has a quiet word with Tom about the previous day when he saw him and Viv together. Tom agrees to forget all about it. Rachel goes back to work. Tina is there and makes sure that Steve knows that Rachel lied about

Summary: Ned is surprised that Jack has accepted Frank's offer, but Jack tells him that he has changed his mind as Frank has lowered the offer by £30,000. He is not prepared to compromise. Sarah warns him that Frank may lower it further. Biff is posting off his job applications. He tells Seth that he is prepared to move down South if necessary. Seth doesn't know how Betty will react when she finds out that the wedding has been postponed and Biff and Linda may be moving. Chris is talking to Frank about Biff. He persuades Frank to put him on a short term contract - a sort of probationary period. Frank likes the idea as it makes him look considerate, but at the same time he can sack Biff when he wants. Chris just wants power over Linda. Frank has put his offer for Emmerdale Farm in writing and asks Chris to deliver it. Butch tells Zak and Marlon that it is the first time in years that he and Sam have not been out with a guy on bonfire night. They spy the draymen at The Woolpack and Marlon makes Butch steal a crate of beer. Chris hands over the formal offer for the farm to Jack and Sarah. He reminds them that the offers will reduce as time goes on and that Jack is not getting any younger. Jack rips up the offer. Betty is wheeled into the tearoom by Seth. She cannot come back to work for a while, but intends to keep everyone around her busy. She gives Kathy a shopping list and Seth has his orders. Chris calls round to see Steve. He tries to provoke Rachel by telling Steve that Jack is ready to sell Emmerdale Farm and that the protest has been a waste of time. She walks out in disgust as Steve tells her to keep her private life out of the office. Sophie tries to interest Kim in James, but it is a waste of time. She is taking him for his monthly check up and wonders if Kim has any questions. She hasn't. Tina takes the opportunity to wind Kim up about Dave getting back with Kathy. Alan suspects that the Dingles stole the beer, but cannot prove it. Terry tells him to lift the ban on

Summary: The explosion at the quarry site was caused by a stray petrol can left by the Dingles. Butch has a couple of scratches. Frank arrives and Zak tells Butch and Marlon to leave all the talking to him. Marlon completely ignores him and proceeds to tell Frank that the damage was caused by a petrol bomb thrown by one of Jack's protesters. Charles wants to get the police involved, but Frank decides to deal with this personally. Rachel calls at Keepers Cottage. She gives Seth Joseph's old baby monitors to save him running up and down the steps all day. He immediately wonders if the range is long enough for them to work from The Woolpack. Alice refuses to let Dave take her to school. Kathy has to go instead. Rachel arrives for work. She apologises to Steve about yesterday, but immediately starts to interfere in his life again when she sees how close he and Tina are becoming.
