Peggy gives her opinion, and Chris confides in Roy.

Roy can't believe Chris and Alice still haven't talked about Canada. Chris understands what a fantastic opportunity this is for Alice. She means everything to him but he doesn't know how they're going to sort this out. He can't just give up his business. Roy's surprised that Chris seems to have changed his tune. He suggests someone could look after the business while Chris gives Canada a chance. But Ronnie wouldn't want to, and Chris doesn't know if he could find anyone else he'd trust enough.

Paul turns up unexpectedly at Celia's and begs her not to get married. He's trying to protect her. Frank was his friend before Celia got involved with him, and she's making a terrible mistake. Celia can't see why it matters. Who she spends her life with is no longer his affair. When Paul insists Frank can't make her happy, Celia demands he leaves. Paul wants to talk again once she's had time to think.

Lilian's been impulse shopping and drops some luxury food off for Peggy. Peggy's amazed at the cost of it.

Tony explains their situation to Peggy. She has always been impressed by Tom's common sense and thinks Tony and Pat should listen carefully to what he's proposing.

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