Kirsty is horrified, and Kenton makes a controversial decision.

Jolene and Fallon struggle with the guest list for the wedding, Kenton has a big family! Kenton thinks the party afterwards should be Halloween fancy dress but Jolene definitely prefers posh.

Chatting to Mel on the phone, Kenton is pleased when she agrees to take Meriel out of school for the wedding but hadn't realised that Mel would be coming too.

Kenton breaks the news to Jolene that Mel is not only coming to England but also to the wedding. With a hint of sarcasm, Jolene wonders if he'd like his ex-wife to be a bridesmaid too.

Kirsty tells Helen that Brenda called from London. She's staying with a friend of her Russian boyfriend. Helen is noticeably bright and Kirsty realises it's because of Rob. What is Helen doing? Rob's married! Kirsty thinks that Rob should be straight with Helen.

Arriving with a delivery, Tom senses an atmosphere but Kirsty assures him everything's fine. He asks if Kirsty would like to go for a curry to say thanks for her advice with the ready meals.

With Tom gone, Helen insists that she knows what she's doing. Kirsty feels like a relationship counsellor. Tom also needs to know that Brenda's back from Russia.

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