Kirsty returns to Ambridge. Lilian tackles a problem that’s bugging Justin.

Radio Times: Roy is taken by surprise, and Lilian uses her contacts.

Characters: Justin, Kirsty, Lilian, Pat, Roy, Tom

• How best to overcome sleep deprivation? Tom is throwing himself into work on the farm, though he doesn’t plan to attend the Cricket AGM tomorrow.
• Lilian is having a meeting with a very grumpy Justin. He has no enthusiasm for the events Lilian has organised. He seems rather distant and he puts this down to his difficulties contacting Russell Dankworth of Environmental Health. Lilian will see what she can do.
• Roy is surprised to find that Kirsty is back at Willow Farm. Why? Too much fussing from mum. Roy encourages her to take more time before going back to work but she is dead set on getting back straight away.
• Kirsty’s next call is on Tom, who doesn’t look great because of lack of sleep. Kirsty reckons she is doing ok. Maybe Tom should get away, like she did. They have been exchanging midnight texts; it was good to know that neither was suffering alone, so don’t stop them.
• Talking to Pat, Lilian explains her quest for the Environmental Health man. Pat has a veg box customer of that name and she thinks they are involved with the Borchester Rotary Club. Further conversation is cut short by the arrival of Kirsty. Pat is so glad that Kirsty came round. Kirsty explains that all she wants to do now is put it all behind her and get back to normal.
