Lilian has some disturbing news, and there are echoes from the past for Kenton and Jolene.

Caroline checks on things at Grey Gables and has a frustrating day. Oliver wishes she'd look at the holiday brochures, as it's clearly what she needs. She agrees a trip to Italy would be perfect and gives him the go-ahead to book a holiday. First thing in the morning, she'll call the agency to book a temporary manager.

Kenton agrees it would be great for Fallon to organise their wedding celebrations but doesn't think Jaxx is the right venue. He and Jolene check out the register office. That doesn't feel right either but at the end of the day it'll do. It's the party after that's important.

Anthea has taken the liberty of sorting out a number of important jobs that have slipped Lilian's mind. Lilian received some bad news earlier, and thanks Anthea for dealing with everything in her absence.

Lilian tells Jolene that Anthea has saved her bacon but it doesn't make her any less annoying. The real problem is Matt. He called from Russia and let it slip that Brenda is with him, working as his PA. Lilian wonders if Mike knows this. Jolene advises Lilian not to say anything, as it might make her look foolish. Lilian's aware that she looks foolish enough already.

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