Philip catches up with Gavin who’s fed up of doing the building work and looking after Blake. Gavin’s not sure if Blake did as he was told in his interview with police and he wonders if they should get rid of him. But Philip’s adamant that they have to keep everything normal until it blows over. Later, Kirsty relays to Philip that the Snells would like to see him. Gavin doesn’t think Philip should meet them but Philip says he’s got no reason to avoid them. Robert tries to persuade Lynda to get out and see people more but she doesn’t feel like she face that yet. She’s interested in getting hold of an account of what happened at Grey Gables on the day of the fire which Robert finds difficult. He thinks she should wait a while and Lynda gets annoyed at him not helping with her request. When Kirsty and Philip arrive at Ambridge Hall, Robert tries to send them away but Lynda stops him. She invited them herself seeing as he wouldn’t help her. Robert apologises to Kirsty for how he opened the door on her and Philip. Kirsty tries to convince Robert that Philip’s not to blame for the Grey Gables fire while Robert shares how much Lynda is struggling to return to normal. Lynda is grateful to Philip for asking her questions. When she and Philip return to Kirsty and Robert, Robert lays into Philip. Lynda orders him to stop and tells him she doesn’t need his fussing. This breaks Robert and he lunges for Philip only to fall to floor completely distraught.
