Phoebe's worried, and Brenda has an exciting prospect coming up.

Tom hopes his hired van looks smart, as he will be having some publicity shots taken of him delivering meals.

Caroline has a fuzzy head and is hoping some fresh air will clear the cobwebs. Lynda wonders if they can pop inside for a chat, as she has found a very nice ladies' watch in the Grey Gables lost property. No one has claimed it and the room in which it was found has only been occupied by single men since May. Lynda suspects one of them had an undisclosed visitor and the lady in question doesn't want anyone to know. Caroline stands up abruptly, experiencing a spasm of back pain.

Meanwhile, Phoebe hopes Brenda isn't leaving because of any hints she may have dropped about Brenda finding somewhere else to live. Mike assures his granddaughter that Brenda is simply seizing a fantastic opportunity to go travelling.

Vicky helps Brenda with the last of her packing and gives her a few travel comforts. The family say their goodbyes.

Vicky admires Brenda's pluck but Mike still thinks Brenda could do with someone to keep an eye on her. The last person he'd choose for the job is Matt Crawford.

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