Jazzer puts his money where his mouth is.

Jazzer puts his money where his mouth is, and Ambridge shows it has got talent.

It's the night of the talent contest. Robert's got the clap-o-meter working, but there are three last minute withdrawals and no sign of Neville. As anticipation builds both backstage and in the audience. Lynda's panicking. 

Ruth, David and Usha are in the audience. David's glad to hear Alan's better, and thinks he's done well to keep up the sleep-out over Lent. 

Kenton gets the show gets under way, demonstrating the clap-o-meter. Molly Button's tap dancing is buzzed very quickly by Neville, and she burst into tears. Despite also being buzzed by Neville, Josh and Jamie do well with Ghostbusters and win their coveted football tickets. Mr Pullen wins the older category with his spoon playing. Neville continues to buzz every act quickly except his nephew Nathan. 

The final act is Jazzer. After much speculation about what he's going to sing, Jazzer steals the show with an amazing rendition of a Scottish folk song, "The Roses o'Prince Charlie". He soon has the audience on its feet, and the clap-o-meter goes off the scale.
