Will struggles as Nic's anniversary approaches

Will struggles as Nic's anniversary approaches and Susan deals with an emergency

Susan calls in on Jennifer at Willow Cottage, she is keen to find how they have been settling in and what the Aldridges have done with the place. The sink is blocked and Jennifer laments not having her waste disposal unit anymore. Susan jumps into action and shows her how unblock the U bend. When the job’s finished Susan invites Jennifer and Brian over to dinner and Jennifer can’t refuse. 

Will doesn’t like the idea of marking the first anniversary of Nic’s death by going to a Sound of Music singalong. Mia explains they want to remember Nic when she was happy and Nic loved the Sound of Music but Will’s not convinced. 

Alan tells Will about his Pay For a Favour plan for the Lent Appeal. People will do good turns for one another and the receiver will donate what they think the good turn is worth to the appeal. Alan would like to donate what’s raised to Borchester Hospital’s intensive care unit in Nic’s name. Will doesn’t like it and Alan says he can find another cause. Mia is upset by Will’s intransigence. Later, Will apologises to Mia who says she’s going to tell Alan to go ahead with the Lent Appeal idea and she still plans on going to go to the Sound of Music to remember her mum.

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