## Resource

Before Bill goes to meet Amber at his car showroom Anne Marie wonders if Amber’s avoiding her after things went badly last time they met. Bill can see Amber might have taken exception to Anne Marie’s suggestion of an abortion, while Anne Marie concedes she could have been more subtle. Bill wants to be sure they don’t scare Amber off again. Later, when they meet, Amber makes a good sales pitch to Bill, while Anne Marie apologises for last time. She wants to be part of Amber’s life but accepts she’s made mistakes, before admitting she’s not thrilled by Amber’s choice of partner. But they still love her. Amber answers their baby questions awkwardly, then Bill invites her for lunch. David and Pip are still shaken after yesterday’s terrible events. David feels Brian could have done more as landowner to protect the sheep, while Pip will get more warning signs printed. PC Trueman calls – they haven’t traced the dog yet, but forensics are working on the evidence they gathered. Later, she takes their statements, assuring them the police are doing all they can to tackle these incidents. When David expresses doubt about continuing with the Show, Pip says he can’t let this defeat him. Then Amber rings to tell David that Bill’s agreed to take the trade stand. David and Pip were thrilled, Amber tells George, before admitting she had lunch with her mum and dad. But Amber insists, she’s not going to let them buy their way back into her life.
