Kirsty’s with Megan at Rewilding Ambridge where they chat about Fallon’s leaving do last night. Megan thinks Tom and Natasha were a bit on edge, but Kirsty reckons Megan’s imagining things. Rex tells them he’s just been running a trial of their website’s virtual tour. It’s running in a beta version at the moment before it’s finalised and goes live. Megan cautions Kirsty to be careful selling her Beechwood house to Helen without an agent. Kirsty berates her for being interfering like she was when she grilled Rex earlier about having a girlfriend. Kirsty and Rex have a business relationship and she can manage her own life. Justin tries out the virtual tour, mis-hits a key and a computerised version of Rex’s voice tells him that he’ll be the guide for the tour. Justin asks to be shown what’s happening with the rewilding this morning. ‘Rex’ explains that brambles are being cleared and Justin muses out loud that Kirsty’s working even though rewilding’s days are numbered. When ‘Rex’ repeats that Kirsty’s working when it all seems a bit pointless, Justin wonders what’s going on. ‘Rex’ invites Justin to visit the ‘Future of Ambridge Room’. There Justin sees a vision where wildlife and vegetation flourish. Then ‘Rex’ outlines the alternative; fields of mono-crops, a lack of wildlife and insects and a dead River Am. When Justin asks what would happen to the people if the rewilding stopped, ‘Rex’ states that Kirsty will lose her job and may give up hope and move away. She may disappear.
