Reading between the lines when told that emotions run high for Lynda as she faces the prospect of a sad goodbye, it seems it was Monty who savaged David’s sheep. Expect letters from dog lovers over his fate. It’s also a big week for the Maliks as concern grows for a family member following recent events. Keira offers her support to Khalil but when she seeks advice from Susan, her nan makes things much, much worse. Ruth feels guilty, George feels frustrated and Harrison makes himself useful.
