Will they be queuing up to audition for Lynda?

Will they be queuing up to audition for Lynda? Ruth faces a dilemma.

Lynda's holding her Calendar Girls auditions today and Carol is looking at the part of Jessie. Susan turned down Lady Cravenshire, a part which Carol suggests Jill should go for. Carol's also helping Kenton with the Bull's Halloween quiz questions. She and Jill wonder what he'll get Jolene for their 2nd (cotton) anniversary. Jill and Carol discuss Joe's ghost walks - and his story about a chorus girl. Jill admits she wants to be back at Brookfield.

Ruth opens up to Usha - she feels guilty for not being able to forgive David over some big decisions, despite all his good intentions. Ruth admits she'd like Jill to come back to Brookfield - Usha suggests asking her.

Elizabeth knows that Jill's restless at Lower Loxley and perhaps wants to move back to Brookfield. She talks to Usha about Ruth and grief, with mention of not moving on. Elizabeth recalls her failed relationships with Ifty and later Roy. She relates in a way to the character Annie in Calendar Girls. With Elizabeth on-board to play Annie, Lynda gets thinking about someone comic to play Chris opposite her.
