Brian's Last Stand, Bubble Wrap Dreams & Rex Finds His Voice

This week in Ambridge (Sunday 31st May – Tuesday 2nd June), Philippa and Katie dig into the drama at Home Farm, where Alice is clutching at straws and Ed Grundy gets an unexpected job offer. Rex has a week of two very distinct halves — overdoing it with Alice's sobriety, then absolutely finding his voice with Brian in a way nobody saw coming. Stella makes a welcome return, and her honest chat with Brian is a highlight of the week.Tom and Natasha are officially bad at money. A climate-controlled bubble wrap greenhouse (starting at £50k, going up to a cool million), boots on eBay, and a passing suggestion to sell the business — it's not looking good. Meanwhile, Martyn's enthusiasm for management speak gives Ian a headache, but their relationship edges forward.Plus: biscuits get the appreciation they deserve, Ed might win the Borchester Show, and Philippa has seen the cast list for later this week and isn't saying a word.Stars and twits of the week, predictions, and the news that the interview with Andrew (who plays Adam) is out this weekend — and it's a corker.Coming soon: the second half of the Adam interview with your Facebook questions.Topics covered:Home Farm: Brian, Alice, Ed and the staffing crisisRex and Alice's sobriety storylineStella's return and her frank conversation with BrianTom and Natasha's financial disasters (climate greenhouse, eBay boots, private school)Ian and Martyn's management-speak clashStar of the Week: Rex / StellaTwitch of the Week: Martin / TomPredictions: Brian's collapse, Tom and Natasha going bust, the Borchester Show Hosted on Acast.
