Joe's dropping big hints about what he'd like for Christmas. Ed reminds him that times are lean. Joe's heard there's a possible job going at Lower Loxley, organising the decoration-making in the Cruck Barn. Joe reckons it's a real business opportunity.

Adam's impressed with Will's plans for putting beetle banks on the Estate, and will do what he can. Adam's pleased that diverting the footpath has finally been agreed, so he can get on with the polytunnel extension.

Joe and Helen laugh at the embarrassing pictures of Mike that have appeared all over the place. Joe remarks that Vicky's good fun. Will praises Helen on her babysitting skills, but Helen's not keen to hear that the kids can't wait for her to do it again.
Joe mentions to Will that Caroline was impressed with the pheasant casserole Ed and Emma cooked. Assuming Ed must have poached them, Will angrily storms off to confront him. As soon as he's got proof he's going straight to the police.

Leon cooks a candle-lit meal for Helen. She tentatively suggests introducing him to her parents. Leon's really not keen. They'll have to arrange a time when he's less busy.
