Not everyone enjoys Will’s Christmas story.

Not everyone enjoys Will’s Christmas story, and Pip admires Rosie's handiwork.

While setting up lambing pens, Ed and Will attempt to talk to George about Fallon. Ed comes clean and says they know George has feelings for her. George strongly denies this and criticises Fallon for spreading rumours. Later George tells Fallon he’d never fancy her as he has tons of girls his own age chasing after him. Fallon apologises for any misunderstanding. George tries to cover his heartbreak when she adds that she’s sure one day he’ll make one of those girls very happy. 
At the Christmas Chronicles evening, Will follows Pip in reading a personal Christmas tale. Will recounts receiving an impressive mountain bike from his Uncle Alf. Tracy heckles on the description of the bike and then claims that was her bike; it had been stolen. Things get heated between Will and Tracy while Lynda pleads with them to show some goodwill. At the end of the evening Tracy apologises for causing drama and Lynda is understanding. 
Ben hears about the school project Rosie has to complete over the holidays. Later he discovers Rosie lost interest in it after ten minutes. He offers to take it on. By the end of the day Pip finds Ben’s created a work of art. Ben realises he’s going to have to deconstruct it a little to make it more in keeping with what Rosie could achieve. He opens up to Pip about things being tricky with their parents. He knows they’re arguing over what’s best for him, and it being all about him is exactly what he doesn’t want.

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