Emma makes a valuable connection, and plans are afoot for Neil.
Pat and Emma agree that a hosepipe through Martyn Gibson鈥檚 letterbox isn鈥檛 an effective way to protest, but that further action is definitely needed. Neil points out the water company is aware of the problem in Ambridge and may need to prioritise. Emma鈥檚 aghast that her dad might not be on their side, but Neil is rescued by the arrival of Joy, keen to talk VE Day event plans. Emma and Pat continue their positive action talk. Pat tells Emma about someone effectively building a moat around their property. Tom overhears and advocates caution; interfering with a watercourse could be illegal. Mick brings the news that a well known water campaigner is at Grey Gables right now. Emma cant鈥� believe it鈥檚 Feargal Sharkey. She rushes away to catch the celebrity before he moves on.
Neil reports the history of the commemorative lighting of village beacons to Joy and Mick. Establishing their best location will be Brookfield鈥檚 Lakey Hill, they resolve to seek out David.
Feargal has some words of encouragement for Emma鈥檚 cause. He counsels persuasion rather than law breaking. Perhaps Emma can find someone on the inside who鈥檚 open to a bit of flattery and guilt tripping? This gives Emma food for thought. She thanks Feargal for his help, and as he leaves to do a spot of fishing, he confirms he鈥檚 happy for his name to be used as long as any plans Emma makes are legit. Emma is inspired.
