A surprise visitor at Ambridge Organics, and Rob's getting to know the boss.

Charlie's brisk with Rob, who's late after having to take Henry to nursery. Charlie goes through yield figures and gives Rob a hard time about various setbacks he's had to deal with. It's time for Rob to up his game.

Elizabeth understands what a push things are for Pat and Tony with Tom gone. Pat asks Roy if he has heard form Tom. No.

Roy has good news for Elizabeth though. The council has given the thumbs up for Loxfest. Elizabeth's pleased but tells Roy he was a bit previous in booking Shelley Brazil for to curate the food activities. Luckily they're ok to go ahead.

Elizabeth shares her Loxfest worries with Roy, but he tries to reassure her. Roy also stuns Elizabeth with the news that they'll be camping at the festival he's invited her to.

Kirsty returns to Ambridge Organics and is icy with Helen. She has just come for what she's owed. Kirsty's insulted that Helen would even think she'll carry on working with her. Helen tries to reach out but Kirsty blows up at her. A real friend would have protected her and not allowed her to be humiliated on her wedding day.

Upset Helen tries to explain that she didn't know what to do for the best. Kirsty says a real friend would have. Think about that before inflicting your friendship on anyone else.

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