Susan may be a bit quick to judge, and Kate feels she is making a difference.

With Justin failing to turn up for his shift at the Village Shop, Susan is struggling. Joy clocks this and toys with Susan’s need for more support. When Susan asks her politely if she will volunteer Joy heartily agrees and starts her trial shift immediately. Susan tells Joy off for holding up David but David puts her straight saying he’d asked Joy for advice on buying a new suit for Jennifer’s funeral. Susan acknowledges with Joy that she was too quick to judge. Joy’s thrilled that she’s passed her trial shift and will be added to the rota. 
Freddie catches up with David in The Bull sharing his woes about the Lower Loxley tour guides. Freddie lines up to David to have dinner with Elizabeth on Thursday. She’s missing him and Freddie wants it to be a surprise for her. 

By chance Kate discovers Stella’s in need of help with tree planting because Ed’s going to be late. Kate volunteers to help out, but Stella’s keen to wait for Ed.  Kate’s insistent and Stella reluctantly accepts her offer.  After getting stuck in Kate voices the strong connection she feels with the Home Farm land. Later, Kate enthuses to Jacob about helping Stella at Home Farm. She felt really at peace there, more so than with Spiritual Home. Jakob repeats his warning of rushing into big decisions but Kate thinks she can see the truth of things and going back to where she started appeals to her.

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