While out on a walk together, Lynda encourages Robert to let go of his anger over Philip. He says he always knew something dodgy was going on. Meanwhile, Lynda is invigorated by climbing Lakey Hill again following her injuries last year. Later, Alan congratulates Lynda on her MBE. He’s holding a special service online tomorrow to bring people together after the discovery of Philip’s slave labour.
Emma reports how excited all the children are about Clarrie and Eddie renewing their vows. Clarrie’s worried about their expectations being too high but Emma points out what a big occasion it is. As they look at photos from Clarrie and Eddie’s wedding, Clarrie reminisces to Emma about the honeymoon. Though if she could go anywhere now it wouldn’t be back there but to Paris, which gets Emma thinking.
Lynda notices how cheered Robert is by spotting some redwings. She tells him she doesn’t think she’ll go to Alan’s service to lift the mood of the village – she’s moved on from her time of grieving for the life she had before the Grey Gables explosion. She wonders how she can help the village overcome Philip’s crime. Whatever she decides, it will have to be spectacular, muses Lynda. She is to be Lynda Snell MBE, after all.
