At the Rewilding Phoebe tells Rex about the regime of walks and yoga Kate is subjecting her to. Rex is excited about the imminent arrival of the beavers, so long as their enclosure is given the seal of approval tomorrow. Rex gives Phoebe a tour of the enclosure, explaining what went into its construction. Phoebe tries to tease out of Rex the details of Peggy’s art installation, before Kate arrives with a bobble hat she’s knitted for Phoebe. Kate then passes on news that Hazel will be joining them on holiday, but Brian won’t, due to his gout. Kate frets over pregnant Phoebe getting too close to the beavers, before going off to see Kirsty, leaving Phoebe to apologise for her mum being even more “Kate” than usual. Having forgotten her lunch Amber returns to 1 The Green to find George half-dressed and trying to persuade her to have sex. They’re interrupted by Amber’s dad, Bill, ringing at the door to pass on some post. George invites him in and Amber is shocked to discover George went to see Bill yesterday, but didn’t tell her. George makes excuses, before pushing Amber to straighten things out with her dad, like she said she wanted to. Ignoring George, Amber has it out with Bill about the decision she was forced into: either stay and give up George or leave. And why hasn’t her mum come to see Amber if she cares about her as much as she claims? Bill then suggests they all have lunch together tomorrow and Amber cautiously agrees.
