Things go from bad to worse for Jack and Peggy.

Nic turns up at Ambridge Organics. She feels awkward but Helen seems pleased to see her so Nic enquires about Will. Helen tells her about Will's showdown with Ed and his job in Gloucestershire. She suggest Nic gives him a call but Nic thinks it's best not to interfere.

Jack's having a bad day. He doesn't recognise Jennifer and accuses her of stealing his golf clubs. Peggy is over-protective and puts it down to being tired.

Brian tells Jennifer about Matt wanting Borchester Land to pull out of the biodigester scheme. Jennifer thinks it's a disaster but Brian points out it's highly confidential so they can't tell Adam or Debbie. Their conversation is cut short when Peggy calls. Jack's now forgotten who she is and has shut her out of the house. Brian alerts Tom to Peggy's situation, and he too rushes round to help.

Peggy's upset but Brian gets in with the spare key and manages to talk Jack down. Soon Jack's tucked up in bed but when Peggy overhears Jennifer saying things can't go on like this, Peggy insists there's nothing to worry about. A good night's sleep is all Jack needs.
