Alice and Harry are on a fundraising horse ride. They’re both in good spirits when conversation turns to the upcoming meeting with Harry’s mum. Alice is feeling nervous. Harry is reassuring, telling her he thinks his mum will love her, when they spot Chris’s van. Chris tells them he has had an emergency call out to a horse who has lost a shoe. They have an awkward conversation where Harry tries to be jocular. Later, Alice and Harry bump into Chris again, at The Bull, where Harry tries to make a joke, saying they aren’t stalking Chris. But it just leads to another awkward atmosphere. He makes matters worse when Chris mentions he’s there with his parents, exclaiming: “It’s wonderful! I can meet Martha’s grandparents at last.”

Fallon is worrying about Jolene and tells Harrison she is going to The Bull later to help her with Yorkshire Pudding Day preparations. She goes on to ask if he can find out how the investigation is going. Harrison is reticent but he tells her he will see what he can do. He finds Jolene later and gives her an update on the investigation. He says he can’t get involved directly but it’s progressing and the team are doing their best. He reminds her that if she remembers anything – people acting suspiciously or unfamiliar customers – to call the number she has been given. He suggests that he and Fallon could move in until Kenton is back from hospital. Jolene panics and refuses, telling him she’s fine.
