Mrs. Dale, the doctor's wife, records the daily happenings In the life of her family
Script by Joan Carr-Jonca
Last week Mrs. Dale collected the Doctor's suit from the cleaner, who had discovered the missing part of the Dalt Grandfather clock in the turn-up of the trousers! Mrs. Dale, accompanied by Miss Sirrvmonds, went to an auction sale but she was outbid by Mrs. Moumford and Mrs. Sandiman on every purchase she tried to make. She did, however, manage to get a miniature at a wedding present for Miss Pink. Gwen persuaded Richard Fulton to write the Coronation Pageant for Parkwood Hill. Isabel Fielding had a sharp attack of influenza and Dr. Dale ordered her to stay in bed for a few days. Trudi volunteered to look after her, as the maid had left that morning. Miss Pink told Sally that the Reverend Francis Austen was not in love but quite fond of her, and needed a wife to help him with his pastoral work.
