Farmer John's bottom lip goes into major pout mode when the police present CCTV evidence that Holly is the person who burgled them. The cops have pictures of Holly that no parent would want to see - she's trying to sell their telly! Up until this moment, Moira had been desperately trying to convince herself and John that Holly would never do such a thing. She can't argue with the evidence, though. Dirty flirty Eve can't argue with Edna, either. While Edna's out doing some of her Christian duties Eve entertains Carl in a very sinful way. But Eve doesn't notice that Carl has left his watch behind - and Edna finds it. Ha! She's got Eve this time - except she thinks Eve's lover is farmer John. Eve can truthfully deny that, but won't name Carl so Edna throws her out. Go on, guess who takes her in? Chas! Oh boy... This would all be wonderful gossip for Nicola at The Woolpack, but her heart's not in it. Jimmy can't wait for Diane to return so they can finalise the deal, but Nicola hasn't had a barrel of laughs behind the bar and is upset when she misses Angelica's first steps...
