Brenda gets a sympathetic hearing from Brian.

Radio Times: Brenda eats humble pie.

Characters: Brenda, Brian, Joe, Kirsty, Mike, Phil, Tom

• Brenda discusses with Brian her interview with Councillor Chalkman. Radio Borsetshire will be broadcasting an apology. Brian advises her to come to him first if she hears anything more.
• Ambridge Organics are wrestling with the problem of marketing broad beans. Tom tells Kirsty to expect some recipe leaflets which Pat is preparing.
• Brenda is relegated to “soft” stories for Radio Borsetshire, like the 100^th birthday of Lottie Cromer. The trouble is, there are few people left who knew her well. But there is one: Joe Grundy. Joe spins some unlikely yarns about her two sons, both now dead, and Brenda suggests that he might like to tell some of them on air.
• Brian discusses with Phil his conversation with Brenda, but is dismissive when Phil asks if there is any foundation for her allegations.
• Tom tries to recruit Mike to deliver vegetable boxes but it all depends on what money is on offer.
