There’s a surprise for Josh while Lily is left contemplating her future.

Josh is upset when David asks him to sort through his things from the loft.  When Josh wonders why it can’t all be left in his bedroom, David says they’re planning to turn his and Ben’s bedroom into B and B accommodation.  Josh is hurt that they’re thinking of doing B and B so soon.  David says that although he’ll miss them, it’s long overdue for Josh.  Josh says that’s because David and Ruth are such good parents.  Later they accidentally knock a bit of skirting board off in Josh’s room and find an old tobacco tin, a magazine and Kenton’s 1974 diary.  They can’t help reading Kenton’s teenage thoughts, including his crush on Janet Adkin. 
When Lily asks Freddie’s advice about Russ, Freddie reminds Lily that she accused Russ of getting Chelsea pregnant. Russ will contact Lily if he wants to talk.  And if the baby was Russ’s, he would own up to it.  Lily can’t believe that last week they had a bright future and now it’s all in ruins.  They’re interrupted by Chelsea who tells them her pregnancy is nothing to do with Russ and it’s obvious that Russ was mad on Lily.  Lily thanks Chelsea for coming and Chelsea asks them not to tell anyone she’s pregnant.  After she goes, Lily’s desperate to contact Russ.  When Freddie reminds her that Russ loves her, Lily admits Russ knows about Sol.  Russ might not believe her if she tells him she loves him, like Lily didn’t believe Russ about Chelsea.

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