It is all getting a bit much for Lynda, and Clarrie makes a shocking discovery.

Lynda picks over the details of the garden with Eddie. Lynda is dismissive of Bert's garden, and his enjoyment of what should be a serious project. Lynda is aghast to hear that Bert plans to open his garden on the same day as her. She is becoming exasperated with all her various projects.
Helen tries to evade Kirsty. She says she needs to get on - Pat has been storing baby clothes for her and she needs to sort through them. Kirsty thinks Helen is scared that Rob might see them talking. She tries to bring Helen to her senses, but she continues making excuses. She has a family now, which means she has more to worry about... Kirsty tells Helen she rang a helpline on her behalf. Helen is appalled. Kirsty gives her the helpline number and Helen responds by telling her to go away.
At the village shop, Brian congratulates Ed on his qualification. Brian books another course for him, considering him an important part of the Home Farm team. Clarrie speaks of her pride for Ed, taking his college course. Clarrie has been washing Alf's clothes, like she does for the rest of the family. Alf says he will join Clarrie at the Good Friday service, and Clarrie calls him "a changed man". Later, however, Clarrie realises there are twenty pounds missing from her purse...

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