It is bonfire night on the Jubilee Field.

It is bonfire night on the Jubilee Field, and Lynda has got plans.

Jennifer and Lynda's protest at the town hall will be going ahead. They can count Tony and Pat in. Johnny can't go, as he's seeing his mum and Eamon.

Johnny's date for tonight, Melanie, has cried off. She claims to have a family party, but it turns out she's seeing Kenz (Johnny's nemesis). Johnny's devastated. Tony gives Johnny some man to man advice, talking about his own experience - and also John's - with girls.

Borchester Land has made a generous donation towards the bonfire night fireworks. Lynda is very sniffy. The Button girls have created an impressive guy.

Robert tells Kenton the latest about Lynda's Blithe Spirit production. Susan is offered the role of Edith, not realising it's the maid. Although she's busy, Susan can't resist the chance to dress up like Lady Mary in Downton Abbey. Robert also quizzes Kenton on the Ouija board incident at the Bull.

David has new petitions about the road decision to dish out. Kenton is pointedly surprised that David's still bothering, now that he and Ruth have thrown in the towel.

Pat tells David how much they will miss him. Things won't be the same. Johnny slips off and gets chatting to a girl. Tony's pleased that he's clearly feeling better - and just look who he's talking to...

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