Episode 1030 (11th March 1986)

Alan throws a tantrum when Jack's bid for Harry's land is accepted, and is almost thrown out of The Woolpack by Amos. Meanwhile, Amos tries to stop Donald for getting Derek to repair his electrics but fails, whilst Dolly is touched when she learns the reason behind Sgt. MacArthur's visit.
==Plot==
Karen thinks that Sandie has told Jack how much the buyers want for Mowlam's Farm. Alan finds out that Harry's land has been sold to Emmerdale Farm. He is angry and argues with Karen. Jack tells Alan to leave but Karen snaps at Jack and storms off. At The Woolpack, Alan is sulking about not getting the land and Caroline tells him off for making fun of Amos. He also reckons that Matt may have killed Harry so he could get his land. Amos tells Alan that he and anyone else must not gossip like that and if they do so again, they will be barred. Derek offers to help Donald as the fuses have blown in the Vicarage. Amos brings up the time when Derek messed up the lights at The Woolpack but Donald still accepts Derek's help. Matt is due at Hotten Police Station today, but has not turned up as he is busy. Sgt MacArthur comes to see him, and knows that Matt will not have gone far. Matt goes to carry on with his work and MacArthur chats to Dolly. MacArthur says to Dolly that Matt is no more capable of killing someone than he himself is. He thinks that the new evidence about where Harry's body was found will help Matt get off the charge. He says that if Matt does get convicted for the murder, he will not be proud to be a policeman any more.
