Joe and Mildred count their blessings.
Neil's mystified as to why Eddie suddenly wants to spend more time with George. Susan says it's jealousy; Neil's got such a good relationship with George now. Susan thinks Emma's got something on her mind, she's obviously been crying. Neil speculates that it's to do with her getting closer to Will.
Adam tells Jennifer that Matt's heard a rumour of a proposal for a bigger digester at Loxley Norton. Matt's worried the development agency might want to take their money elsewhere. Before he leaves for his delivery run Adam asks Jennifer to check on the maze. It's had a good first few days.
At the shop, Susan apologises to Mildred and Joe for the state of her stall at the fete. Christopher's been a bit giddy since his exam. But Mildred is effusive about the fete, she really enjoyed it. She and Joe finish stocking up for their picnic and settle themselves on a bench in the churchyard. Mildred's looking forward to seeing her family again, but Joe plucks up the courage to ask her if she'll stay a bit longer. She tactfully suggests they just make the most of the time they have left together.
