Pip puts her business case while Chris has money on his mind.

Chris is worrying about finances, and isn't calmed by Alice who feels guilty about their debt. She suggests her grandmother as a source of funds, but Chris would rather sort it himself than sponge off her family. At the fishing lake, Alice suggests they focus on buying out Ronnie instead of saving for a house as well. She points out that they're in a better financial position than her friends, but Chris is frustrated that Alice can't see that it isn't just about money.

Jill brings Freddie and Lily to see the new puppy at Brookfield on their way to the gymkhana in Edgeley. Later, Jill promises to buy the twins ice-cream after they've competed, but they demand hot dogs instead. She also confides in Pat that she's encouraged by Elizabeth's relaxed attitude.

Pip has some meat marketing research to show David, but he is too busy most of the day to have a look. When she tracks him down later he is impressed by her information on social networking, but thinks they ought to stay with Hasset Hills co-op since it's safer. Pip suddenly gets upset, but explains that the problem's with Spencer, who's struggling to hold his family together.

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