Alice has the New Year blues. Meanwhile Emma receives an unlikely visitor.

Alice tells Jennifer that her New Year celebration was quiet. She went to the village to hear Christopher and Neil ring in the New Year but after a full day at work, which she's still not enjoying, all she wanted was to go home to bed. She offers to go with Jennifer to take Peggy to the Laurels. With Jack not even knowing who Peggy is, Alice reckons she needs all their support.
Nic tells Susan that Will spoils Jake and Mia just as much as George. Susan admits it's lovely having the grandchildren living with them. 
Nic and Will enjoy a romantic anniversary meal at Grey Gables. They toast the best year of their lives.
Emma tells Susan she's had an unexpected visitor. Tracy called round with flowers and an apology. Emma learned that it was Tracy who called the police to arrest Clive, after he started to get violent with her and Donna. Tracy now appreciates the difficult situation Emma was in over Keith. 
Susan voices concerns about why Clive had risked coming back to Ambridge. He knew he wasn't supposed to, nor was he welcome. Emma did ask Tracy this, but realises Tracy never actually answered her.

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