Mrs. Dale, the doctor's wife, records the daily happenings in the life of her family
Script by Basil Dawson

Mrs. Dale was asked if she could accommodate Frau Schliesser, the school-mistress in charge of the foreign children, for a short while; Mrs. Dale was delighted to do this. When Trevor returned home on leave, he found that Sally had 'flu. Whilst recovering from this she was persuaded by Dr. Dale and Denby Harris to accept the latter's invitation to spend a holiday on his yacht later in the year. Sir Bernard Remington-Wade's letter to Jenny did not shake her resolve not to have anything more to do with Bob and he was in despair. Dr. and Mrs. Dale were disturbed one night by Mrs. Freeman who was certain she had seen a burglar. The 'burglar' turned out to be Bob, whose present state of nerves had caused him to sleep-walk. So that Miss Bendle should not leave 'Sarah,' Sally promised her that Mrs. Freeman would definitely be leaving the shop - whether she went to Cornwall for her holiday or not.
