Rex is reluctant to tell Kate that moving Spiritual Home to the rewilding site is a no. Alice is equally unwilling – she doesn’t want to get involved. They talk about holiday ideas. Alice explains Fallon and Harrison can’t join them as Fallon reckons Harrison won’t get the time off. They agree to chat further, and Alice suggests they stay at hers tonight rather than on the boat. After the cricket Chris asks Harrison if something’s bothering him – he seemed to be off his game. Harrison assures him he’s fine, inviting Chris and Rex to watch the football at Woodbine later. Alice is welcome too, but she passes. She’s fine with Rex going, but she’s shattered and will stay home. Rex and Chris discuss Harrison. They resolve to hang in until he’s ready to talk.Fallon admires the revamped Cruck Barn at Lower Loxley. Elizabeth wonders whether she’s still up for running it. Fallon’s surprised by this. She points out that whilst they’d talked about it a few months ago, it’s happening sooner than she imagined and she needs to get her head round it. She’s thrilled at the prospect though – it could be brilliant. She asks Elizabeth for a few days to think about it. When she mentions the job to Harrison, he’s wrongfooted and initially lukewarm about the idea. Later he apologises. Of course Fallon should go for it. Likewise Fallon encourages Harrison to attend an upcoming awards ceremony for his team in Yorkshire. He wants her to go too, though understands if she doesn’t fancy it. But Fallon’s keen – count her in.
