Martyn lays down the law, and Tony loses his temper.

Tom and Tony are surprised when determined Pat says she's secretly entering Helen's necklace in the Flower and Produce Show. Tony's angry when his farm account shows that Tom has transferred some money in and out of it without asking. Defiant Tom can't see the problem. He just had a temporary cashflow problem. Tony accuses Tom of covering up for Rob's bad advice, which Tom denies. Pat tries to calm them. They should agree to differ.
Shula's shocked when she bumps into Darrell and sees his battered face. Darrell says he was attacked outside the Elms last night. He hesitantly accepts Shula's invitation for something to eat. When he says he's not going back to The Elms, Shula offers to have a word with a member of staff.
Kathy's irritated when Martyn tells her he'll also be shortlisting and interviewing candidates for the chef's position at the golf club. She's even more annoyed when he forces her to cancel her leave to do the interviews.

When tearful Kathy asks Pat whether it's because she's bad at her job, Pat assures her no. Martyn is a pathetic workplace bully. Kathy's a far better person than him.

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