==Plot==
Joe tells Kathy about Frank and Dolly, but she won't believe that there is anything going on. Jack calls to see Chris and warns him about messing Kathy about. Chris is not happy to be spoken to in that way. Dolly finds an empty vodka bottle in the living room. Frank and Kim row about her telling people about their baby plans. Tony arrives to drive Kate to her solicitors. Frank apologises to Michael for suspecting him of arson, but Michael warns him that he won't give in fighting Frank's plans to turn Blackthorn Farm into a farming museum. Dolly and Caroline measure up at 3 Demdyke Row. Amos writes a letter to the council complaining about traffic running through the village. Henry receives a mystery letter. Charlie turns up at 3 Demdyke Row and asks Dolly who advised her not to do business with him. She tells him that she spoke to Alan. Seth is still selling plots for the cow pat competition, but claiming that he is helping Tony. Jack calls in at The Woolpack and Sarah says she needs his advice about a letter she has received. Nick and Caroline clear all the furniture out of Victoria Cottage as Caroline claims that it all really belongs to her. She tries to encourage Nick to ask Dolly about renting 3 Demdyke Row. Elsa is out of hospital and Alan tells her to look after herself, as he leaves The Woolpack he is left speechless to see Caroline driving away with a van load of furniture. Archie and Eric find the scene amusing. Kate arrives back from her solicitors. Her trial date has been set for the end of October and she is upset that the charge against her has not been reduced. Henry seems preoccupied. Amos tries singing to cheer him up. Eric promises to look out for some furniture for Alan. They both decide that you cannot trust women.
