Fallon faces an impossible choice and Emma’s plans gather pace

Emma emails the Flower and Produce Show committee with some video clips that Ben put together for her to prove her point that an ambitious live streaming plan will backfire on them. Chris has rung Emma on Alice’s behalf about giving up being on the committee for the Flower and Produce Show. 
Alice hides in the old shed from Brian when he calls round. She wishes she was on holiday and remembers happy times with Chris in Valencia. Alice gets a message from Brian to be at Home Farm tomorrow morning. She doesn’t feel qualified for the work but then thinks about the eco-office which makes it more appealing.    
Emma doesn’t know why Fallon is avoiding Natasha. Emma thinks Natasha is nice and seems happy, though she can’t be as happy as Emma is with her family and job – she feels like she’s really making a difference at the Tearoom.  Meanwhile, Fallon has Natasha’s message of the Tearoom ‘embracing change’ on her mind as she does a stock take. If business at the Tearoom doesn’t improve, Fallon only has one option; Emma’s job will have to go.

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