Justin's evening takes a surprising turn.

Justin's evening takes a surprising turn, and Harrison smells a rat.

Lillian is getting ready for the big day. She confides in Jennifer that she has some worries about how others may perceive her marrying Justin merely for his money; Jennifer reassures her that this is nonsense. 

Brian and Adam discuss Ed's job offer. Adam tells Brian he let him have the job on the condition he could accept other work, as well as a small bump in salary. Brian taunts him for getting "soft in his old age." Jennifer persuades Brian to call the echo and accept the business person of the year award.

At the Bull Lillian's Hen party gets off to a good start. Despite some initial pre wedding nerves, the drinks begin to flow. After a risqué game, Lillian is distracted by her phone. She reveals she is awaiting an important email.

At Justin's stag tensions rise as conversation turns to the hit and run Justin suggests they should put it behind them, whilst Harrison insists they will catch the true perpetrator. Justin also reveals he declined the award Brian has been nominated for. Later that evening Lillian shows up at the door with the email; a prenuptial agreement she wants Justin to sign, which he agrees 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.
