Opinions are divided at St Stephen's.
It's the AGM of the PCC today, and Alan has made up his mind to tell his parishioners about his engagement to Usha. So once Lynda has done her slide show about the churchyard project, he slips the announcement in. As predicted, it causes a stir, with Susan up in arms straight away, and Derek Fletcher walking out. Neil (who has just been elected as churchwarden to replace Bert) is fed up with Susan - why can't she just be happy for them? Lynda, on the other hand, is thrilled.
Kathy is putting serious thought into whether or not to apply to run the clubhouse bar and restaurant at Grey Gables golf club. She talks it through with Kenton. She really wasn't expecting a suitable job to come up so soon. She's given Matt a call and he thinks she has the qualifications necessary - but she doesn't want to land Elizabeth and Nigel in trouble by leaving. She was very happy at Lower Loxley until she tried to befriend Taylor but while she is working there her name will always be linked with his. By the end of the day, she's decided to go for the new job.
