Oliver has cause for complaint and Peggy's little deception is discovered.

At The Laurels, Elona asks Peggy if she's fallen out with Ted. Peggy insists it's just a difficult time for new friendships. Elona hints that Ted was disappointed to not see Peggy. Offering Ted some companionship can't hurt anyone, surely. Peggy concedes that Elona may have a point. 

Kathy tells Clarrie that her chat with Fallon was helpful, but is worried about how much time and space she can give Jamie. Clarrie comforts her and says that what's important is that she at least knows that Jamie is well and with people who care for him. 

Oliver thinks Caroline's decision to not replace Roy and her taking on the role of full time manager should have been a joint decision. He wants more time together to enjoy life, but Caroline wants to be economically efficient. They decide to give themselves six months after which they will review the situation. Until then, Oliver will give Caroline his full support. 

Peggy's not the only one baking extra goodies for the Gardener's Question Time recording. Jill reckons it'll take the Gardener's Question Time team a lot of digging afterwards to burn off all the calories. She and Peggy are both looking forward to it.

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