Stir Up Sunday proves to be a nostalgic occasion for Jill.

Stir Up Sunday proves to be a nostalgic occasion for Jill, and Nigel is determined to get his own way.

Nigel thinks they should increase Freddie's extra maths lessons throughout the holiday, to increase his chance of passing the Cathedral School exam. Elizabeth doesn't agree, but Nigel eventually persuades her. He'll arrange for both Freddie and Lily to have extra lessons. Lily may not need them but with extra tuition, who knows, she might win one of the scholarships. 

It's Stir-up Sunday, so pudding-making time at Glebe Cottage. Josh notices Jill's got an old sixpence. It's the one Phil found last year with his year of birth on it. Jill thinks it would be nice to put it in the pudding again today. And every year.

Feeling energised, Helen's decides to do a stock take in the shop. Pat's worried, and wants her to take it easy. She looks to Tony for support but he doesn't want to talk about it. He reminds Pat that Helen's gone all through her pregnancy without listening to anyone, so what makes Pat think she's going to start now? When Pat rings to see how Helen got on, she's dismayed to hear that Helen's still at the shop, and hasn't yet eaten. Helen argues that her huge lunch was enough, and ends the call, insisting she's fine.

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