All is harmonious at Home Farm... for now!

Kim Tate (Claire King) is looking forward to renewing her wedding vows with husband number 4, Will Taylor (Dean Andrews), at Christmas.

Unfortunately, businesswoman Kim remains unaware that Will is in cahoots with her former financial advisor lover, Peter (David Michaels), and has a plan to bring her down...

In the meantime, Kim decides to make amends with her daughter-in-law, Dawn Taylor (Olivia Bromley).

Kim invites Dawn and her husband, Billy Fletcher (Jay Kontzle), to move back into Home Farm and attend the vow renewal ceremony.

Dawn and Billy moved into Holdgate Farm with their kids, Lucas, Clemmie and Evan earlier in the year.
