What’s happening in Ambridge today?
Clive’s New Leaf? Clive Horrobin is back and claims to be a "changed man" who practises yoga. He’s desperate to make up for lost time with Brad, but Tracy remains fiercely protective of her family. Is it truly a case of "one man’s rubbish is another man's treasure," or is it simply too little, too late?
Bert’s Regime: Bert is at loggerheads with Susan and Tracy’s new "get fit" regime. From vaping to sugar-free tea, Bert is convinced his human rights are being infringed upon—especially when custard creams are at stake!
Carol’s Close Call: After a frightening near-fall at home, Carol Tregorran is forced into a difficult compromise. To keep her secret from Anna, she finally agrees to Alan’s suggestion of a hallway camera—but will it be enough to keep her out of The Laurels?
