Jazzer takes Ed in hand, and Susan gets short shrift.

Ed's still feeling the pressure of living at Ambridge View. Jazzer reckons Ed works too hard. He should kick back a bit; why doesn't he take Fallon to see 'Halloween'? Ed declares he and Emma are out that night, but suggests maybe Jazzer should go with Fallon. Jazzer demurs; he might be on a promise. He suggests instead that he and Ed should have a proper session sometime soon - just a few jars.

Jill confronts Elizabeth over what she's heard about her and Roy. Elizabeth admits everything. When Jill sees her obvious anguish and regret she soften, and comforts her tearful daughter. Jill has to break it gently to Elizabeth that quite a few people know about the affair. Elizabeth fears her reputation is in ruins, but Jill reassures her that she's still very much loved, and that Lily and Freddie will just need time to come to terms with what's happened. Grateful Elizabeth doesn't know what she'd do without her mum. The two of them decide to go for a walk. On the way Jill calls at the shop and puts Susan firmly in her place. Meanwhile Elizabeth ignores a voicemail message from Roy, and mother and daughter set off.

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