Radio Times: There is a new arrival at Blossom Hill Cottage. Meanwhile, Lilian is worried.

Characters: Lilian, Matt, Peggy, Pip, Rob, Ruth, Usha

Bob Pullen’s funeral was a great success with a big turn out. Usha has got a new tenant for Blossom Hill Cottage. Rob Tichener. He’s the new herd manager for the Estate Dairy. He’s married and seems very nice. He’s recently been in Canada managing a herd much like the new one at Borchester Land. He only came back because his father in law had a stroke so he won’t be around at weekends until the herd is up and running.
Lilian tries to explain her odd behaviour on the phone to Peggy by saying it was a call from a long lost friend from Guernsey. Peggy doesn’t sound too convinced.
Pip is back from her holiday and had a great time. She claims she is knackered but still wants to go out with Spencer.
Matt is still trying to be nice to Lilian when she gets back but Lilian isn’t very interested. She isn’t convinced she was missed as much as he says. And she is certainly not interested in going out for a slap up meal.
