Characters: Brian, Clarrie, David, Jennifer, Jill, Pat, Tony
- Jennifer’s concerned at the intra-familial tension, Kate’s gone off with some friends to a festival rather than be around her father, and Debbie’s obviously unhappy at something. She knows something’s up and accuses him of having no respect for her.
- Jennifer gets the feeling from Brookfield that Brian’s not just in the bad books at home. Although Jill’s in a good mood about the fete – although the Red Arrows can’t help, the Felpersham Flyers will be putting in an appearance at the fete.
- Jason’s nowhere to be found, seemingly the only builder in the area he’s involved in all of the major building projects in the village (Brookfield, Grange Farm, Bridge Farm and the Vicarage conversion) but telling each of them he’s at one of the others …..
- Brian misses a lunch appointment with Jennifer, claiming that his business meeting is running on. She accuses him of having an affair, which he, truthfully, denies, He finally admits that he is a member of the consortium that is buying the whole estate, not just the inhand land that she already knew about. She’s shocked and concerned at the potential repercussions.
