A failed bid for freedom.

Radio Times: A failed bid for freedom.

Characters: Eddie, Hayley, Joe, Nigel, Tommy, William

• It’s approaching Christmas so the Grundys must be trying to perfect their get-rich-quick schemes. They’re harvesting mistletoe for one method, but for another, in the lack of co-operation from Clarrie, Joe’s resorting to trying to learn how to embroider, although Eddie suggests that it might be easier to just return the deposits. William, though, might have a plan, although doesn’t let on.
• In contrast, Hayley is concerned that they might not have enough pigs to fulfil their Christmas pork orders and they consider slaughtering some of the younger batch early just to keep up.
• The Lower Loxley roof has been inspected properly and its severe danger – they’re hoping the inspector is wrong.
