Ben makes an horrific discovery. Meanwhile Iftikar bowls a maiden over.

Susan assures Iftikar that Neil's taken his advice seriously. He doesn't want to be dropped from the cricket team. Ifty's pleased to hear it. Tracy calls in to the shop. She flirts outrageously with Ifty, even getting him to help her search for a lost earring. Tracy begs Susan for an invitation to Ambridge View for lunch. She wants to quiz Neil on the rules (actually the laws) of cricket.
Lynda and Susan check the night camera DVD for any signs of the 'monster'. To their shock and surprise there are no animals to be seen, but there is footage of Will and Nic in a compromising position.
Ben's been out for a good while. David suggests Ruth gives him a call. When she does she finds Ben tearful and distressed, having made a grisly discovery. She goes to collect him and sees for herself a viciously savaged ram. She tries to assure Ben that the culprit was Lynda's monster, but really she fears it's another terror attack. 
When Pip finds David calling the police she demands an explanation. She's furious that Ruth and David didn't tell her the truth, and is scared for her family. David tells Pip all they can do is stand together, and look out for each other.

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