Home Farm for sale. Brian takes back control
Faced with the possibility of Chris Carter getting a share of Home Farm when Alice divorces him, Brian has decided on a scorched earth policy. He is thinking of selling the farm and retaining the ability to divide up the proceeds himself.
Of course if he hadn’t fallen out with Adam then he would have had a succession plan, although its clear Adam would have driven the farm into bankruptcy in short order in the first place.
It seems clear that Brexiteer Brian has now grasped what taking back control actually means.

No middle-class solutions for Blake
Blake returned to Ambridge hoping to find his former owner gangmaster Philip Moss still in situ rather than in jail. Kirsty thought he would appreciate the help of Sgt Knacker Burns. Understandably except to Kirsty he did not. This led to him being run into by Chelsea while she was taking a driving lesson and spending time in hospital. Cue the arrival of Lynda who offered him a chance to stay at her house. Faced with a three course meal for dinner, Blake made off, no doubt overwhelmed. No doubt too often he was lucky to get anything to eat. The efforts of Ambridge’s LibDems to help Blake were well meaning but underlined their inability to grasp the scale of the crisis facing people like Blake in 2021 with no welfare state left to help them get by
