The stress continues to pile on Lily and Ben has a confession to make

Tom reports that at last week’s Nuffield conference he discussed the relative merits of mulch and compost with Natasha. Tony’s surprised when Tom announces that he’s decided to follow Natasha’s advice. Then Tom announces that Tony can ask Natasha any questions he might have tomorrow. Pat’s invited them for dinner. That’s great, says Tony.

It’s stir-up Sunday at Brookfield, and Jill’s surprised when Ben joins her. She’d thought Rosie would be her only company. Ben teases Jill – the pudding mix was looking a bit ropey before he arrived. Ben’s irritated when Jill tries to give Bess treats. Nobody is taking his training regime seriously! Jill intuits that there is something bothering him. Ben confesses to driving on the road, and hitting a badger. It gave him a shock. 

Shula reassures Lily that the Hunt Ball was a complete success. Shula’s keen to talk to Elizabeth as well. But Lily’s finally persuaded her to take some time in bed to recover from her flu. Shula insists that Lily shouldn’t worry about going back to university. The family are all there to look after Elizabeth. Shula advises Lily to speak to Kenton. He’ll be able to suggest potential replacements for Geraldine. Then Lily can get back to Manchester and pick up where she left off.
