Clarrie has her suspicions, and is it last orders at The Bull?

Clarrie's preparing a quiche for the flower and produce show, as well as a cake for Joe's birthday in a fortnight. The talk of food sends a queasy Emma running away. Clarrie quickly guesses that Emma's pregnant. She's very happy for Emma, and promises to keep it secret. 

Eddie's had a good day shifting compost at the car boot sale. Telling Clarrie about his busy week ahead, he notices she's distracted. Clarrie reveals that Emma's pregnant. Eddie's delighted, but Clarrie's worried about how Will will take the news. 

Adam and Ian do research at a cherry grower. Ian is keen to take some of Home Farm's production if they went ahead, but it takes several years to come on stream. They lunch at a local pub. Noticing its impressive trade, Ian suggests the Bull is dying on its feet. Freda's lack of variety in the menu is partly to blame, but Jolene's the real problem. Ian speculates on Lilian buying Jolene's share of the pub, but Adam's not so sure. 

Adam brings it up later with Lilian, who confirms her money's focused on Amside. And anyway, finding another magic couple to run the Bull is a stretch too far.

Intelligent speech, the most insightful journalism, the wittiest comedy, the most fascinating features and the most compelling drama and readings anywhere in UK radio.
