Eddie is given a warning, and Justin wants to make up for lost time.

Helen thanks Kirsty for being there when she faced down Rob. Helen is still fretting about Henry's behaviour. She doesn't know what's going on in his head. Lynda praises Helen, who mentions how happy Lynda's B&B guests were. Lynda delights in sharing the news of her 5-star review and points out how radiant a rather embarrassed Kirsty looks. Kirsty mentions to Helen that Peggy wants Tom to collect her from the hairdresser's on Thursday. Tom's worried about what Peggy makes of Kirsty's pregnancy 

Lilian and Justin enjoy waking up together in the Dower House. Miranda will be busy with her charity work, so they have lots of quality time ahead. Justin makes breakfast, and while Lilian nips out - in her fur coat and slippers - to retrieve her phone from the car, she bumps into Eddie, who's delivering firewood. Lilian quickly covers for why she's at the Dower House so early in the morning but then later ponders that Eddie's no fool, so they may need to have a little talk. 

Eddie congratulates Lynda on her 5-star B&B review and then angles for work by pointing out that Ambridge Hall's guttering is in need of repair. Lilian catches up with Eddie and warns him about spreading rumours. Eddie understands - he'll stick to the story that Lilian and Justin were just having a working breakfast.

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