Oh, give it a rest will ya?! You’re talking about my home. Land that’s been farmed by my family for generations! (2 of 2)

When it comes to the farmhouse, it too almost gets taken off auction when it doesn’t meet the reserve price but then a bidding war occurs between Chris and Ray and Ray comes out on top with a £350K bid. Katie listens and is empathetic with Andy about his killing Sarah because of what they went through with Strickland. They get back together. Jack worries what Ray will do with the property and blows up at the others speculating about it. Robert makes it clear to Andy that he’s gonna pay for everything he’s done, ‘and that’s a promise.’ The Sugdens get to finishing their packing as they are gonna move into the cottage the next day.

Well he’s not your dad. And it’s not your money. And don’t think when you leave school you’re gonna be sponging off my inheritance because it’s MINE! And there’s no way you’re livin’ off me.

Andy goes on about how it’d be great that he and Jack could work together but Jack doesn’t want Andy anywhere near farming again, focus on school and exams (pleasing Robert 😏). Afterward, Robert calls Andy ‘a right creep around dad’ and reminds him Jack is not his dad nor his money. Meanwhile, Jack drops off ‘choccies’ for Diane for being a good friend and tells her about the problem with the boys. Robert interrupts a snogging session between Katie and Andy after which Katie leaves. So there’s a birthday party coming up for Andy. Robert makes it clear to Andy he’s a Sugden while he’s the poor relation, don’t he forget it. Gifs will be posted separately.

Do you wanna know why I hate him? Because he killed my mum and let my dad stand trial for it. So whatcha think of him now, Katie? (1 of 2)

The day has come for Jack to auction the farm and it’s land and he airs his concerns what will come of it to Diane. Andy tries to get Katie back but she sees herself caught up in summat between him and Robert and wants none of it. Jack pays Chris a visit to see if he’ll be at the auction believing he’ll do the farmland good unlike others. Ray gets an earful from Viv and Bob about the auction. Pollard gives his politician speak as Seth puts it re: Jack’s land. Robert tells Katie why he hates Andy - because he killed his mum! Jack’s 172 acres of land is taken off auction since the reserve price was not reached. Gifs will be posted separately.

Well as you ladies both know, being a good parent doesn’t guarantee you good children, does it?

No Robert. As we enter the final month of 2001, Jack isn’t too thrilled with Kathy staying with him even if it is for a few days (‘kidnapping is a serious offense’) worrying he could be charged for harboring her if word gets out. Edna isn’t doing so well with getting signatures for her anti-phone mast initiative. Elsa’s character is considered quite low by certain villagers as she bemoans Kathy. Jack lets Andrew know Kathy is staying at his to ease his worry. Jack offers his viewpoint to Kathy on kids being taken away based on circumstances.
