There's some new talent on the cricket pitch and Tom's suspicions are aroused.

As the single wicket starts, Alan comments that Harry's done well with sponsorship. All his fans have turned out. Harry hopes he won't mess up by forgetting the rules. Alistair's pleased they beat Paxley. This could be a great cricket weekend. He hopes Josh and Jamie will join the team as they need more youth. Alistair thanks Kenton for taking on the role of commentator.

As Jamie goes through to the next round, Brenda wishes Sid was here to see him doing well. Jazzer's hoping to see Harry lose, and makes his feelings known about Harry lodging at the Bull.

Brenda receives a call offering her a room in Leicester. Tom's horrified to learn she'll be lodging with someone called Peter, and struggles to get through to the next round. He wants to know if Peter's got a girlfriend. All Brenda cares about is that he's renting her a room at a reasonable rate but Tom wants to know more. Brenda tells him that Peter's gay, so that should make Tom happy.

Tom meets Harry in the final. He's playing well now but so is Harry, who eventually wins. Alistair wants Harry on the team - he's just what the village needs. Jazzer is nonplussed.
