The Main Feature: Today’s full episode where Chelsea Horrobin faces a devastating blow. Just as she’s preparing for her big debut at the village fete, her professional hairdressing equipment is stolen from her horsebox. With hundreds of pounds of kit gone, will she manage to save her business before Sunday?
Espionage at Home Farm: Brian Aldridge discovers that Ed Grundy has been taking "over the odds" payments from Martin Gibson to leak information. But instead of a fallout, Eddie Grundy hatches a "cunning plan"—turning Ed into a reluctant double agent for the resistance.
