Shula confides, and Rob has an answer to prayer.

Shula has given up biscuits for Lent. She feels she has a lot to atone for. In confidence, Shula admits to Caroline that, for the sake of Rob and the hunt, she lied to PC Burns about what happened with the hunt saboteur. Rob started it and hit the man.

Tormented Shula has it out with Rob, who's simply pleased that no further action will be taken. Shula angrily tells him that he put her in an impossible position. She only did it for the hunt - and for Helen, who is family.

Shula reports back to concerned Caroline that she has seen another side to Rob and it was horrible.

Tom helps Helen at Ambridge Organics. The shop's looking better already for Helen's presence. Pat says well done.

Tom and Pat talk about Tony, who seems brighter - and poor Brian who's coping with Lilian staying at Home Farm. Tom mentions that Helen could go back to the shop permanently. Perhaps Tina has done them all a favour after all.

However, Rob mentions to Helen that he thinks Henry is playing up because he misses his mum. This makes Helen decide that she should put the shop behind her. Her life has moved on. Rob suggests getting rid of the shop altogether. Helen immediately agrees that it's the only option. It's obvious.

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