The residents gather for news of a friend.

The residents gather for news of a friend, and preparations begin for the summer fete.

Joy tells Lynda she wants to go through her ideas for the fete. Lynda is taken aback that Joy already has some arrangements in hand.  Mick calls to say the Hollerton Silver Band is not available but Lynda insists music is vital. Lynda says Joy should not underestimate the task ahead. Later, Lynda returns to chat with Joy as she tackles some weeding. As Lynda suggests a school ukulele group, Mick arrives to say the Borchester Found in a Skip band has agreed to perform.

Lily can’t decide on the Grey Gables job offer as she tells Freddie that George has called off the Bartleby sale.  Mick is dismissive about the work logs as Lily says sending the same thing every week renders it pointless. Mick walks off, agreeing. Lynda chats to Kirsty on the phone about Roy’s decision as she arrives at Grey Gables to collect his address book from his locker. She invites Lynda to join a video call to Roy planned for that evening. After her exchange with Mick, Lily complains to Kirsty that no-one takes her seriously. She agrees to get the master key but after Kirsty invites her to join the video call to Roy says she’ll bring it along then. 

That evening after the video call to Roy, Freddie turns up with Bulgarian treats from the dairy at Roy’s request. A message from Roy says he told Oliver to offer Lily the job. And he sends a message to Kirsty saying now he has found his soulmate, it’s up to her to find hers.
