Justin is feeling confident, but concerns are growing for Fallon.

Jim checks the Tearoom has a ‘Hands off Ambridge’ poster ready for tomorrow’s charging station meeting.  When Fallon says it’s been a nightmare practising making Scottish dishes for Tracy and Jazzer’s wedding, Jim says it’s very generous of her to do it.  Fallon reckons it’s good advertising, especially if the Tearoom’s going to have a future.  When Pip mentions there might be a café at the charging station, Fallon’s worried, especially when Jim shows her the plan with a cafe marked on it.  Jim convinces Fallon to go to tomorrow’s meeting.
The drill arrives at Home Farm and Justin turns up to see it.  Brian can’t wait to have a go, but when Stella describes all the things it’s capable of, Justin teases Brian wondering if he understands it all.  Brian says it’s perfectly straightforward and anyway, they have a trainer to help them all get the hang of things.  However, later when Stella mischievously goes into all its high-tech, Brian suddenly realises he has work to do and leaves Stella and Ed to it.  Later after a meal out with Pip, Stella celebrates the success of the new drill over a glass of wine at Rickyard.
At The Bull Brian worries about the cost of the drill to Justin, but Justin says it will pay for itself in the long run.  Talk turns to the charging station and Brian asks if Justin thinks there’s still a lot of opposition. Justin doesn’t know but says Jim’s campaign has been relentless. They’ll have to sweeten the pill if Jim’s going to swallow it.

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