Duration: 30 minutes

First broadcast: on BBC Radio UlsterLatest broadcast: on BBC Radio Foyle

After the parish fete is threatened due to a problem with the parochial hall, Maggie offers up the farm as a venue in an attempt to win back her cake baking title. However, JD only sees it as a chance to co-promote a country music festival with Father Brian and offers the parish a hefty upfront guarantee. But when no proper acts can be booked the only person they can find to perform is Mikey.
