The Archers - 21/10/2008

Will and Nic meet in Borchester. Will's grateful she made contact, and tells Nic all about his fight with Ed. Nic sympathises but the atmosphere is strained. Will's off swimming with George, and they part awkwardly, neither quite knowing what to say. Will later rings and offers to take her children swimming sometime; Nic could come to watch if she wanted. Nic's not sure. It would be good for Mia and Jake but she doesn't want to get involved again. Will assures her that's not his intention. Lilian questions their decision to move Jack to The Willows without consulting Peggy. Matt believes it's the best solution to an impossible situation. They can tell Peggy once Jack's settled. Lilian thinks Matt's been marvellous; not just with Jack but with such a generous offer to Pat and Tony too - whatever his reason behind it. Jack's very confused at The Willows but Diane, the manager, soon takes control of the situation. Back home, Lilian worries about Jack. Matt assures her that he's being cared for by professionals now, and she couldn't have done any better for Jack. Lilian just hopes Peggy will feel the same way when she tells her tomorrow.
