Jill's hard work pays off. And is Lilian's secret out?

As Jill and Lynda prepare the catering for Bob Pullen's funeral, they discuss Clive's re-arrest for breaching the conditions of his licence. Lynda comments on Joe's smart, suited appearance. Joe points out that Bob had said he could have any of his clothes that took his fancy.
The issue of Bob's Will arises. Jill's not found anything in his bungalow, and Joe's emphatic that he hasn't seen anything either. Joe uses every opportunity to remind people that he's now officially the oldest man in the village.
Lynda thanks Kenton for his input into the hugely successful Christmas show, although his methods were not conventional. Kenton is close to dropping Jill in it, but she denies having any knowledge of Kenton's interventions, and doesn't want Lynda to find out otherwise.
Peggy and Lilian are not having a very harmonious time in Whitby, with Peggy exhibiting too much energy for Lilian's liking. Peggy insists on climbing the 199 steps to the abbey.
Lilian is less than impressed, as she later tells Paul in a secret phone call. When Peggy walks in, Lilian over-reacts. Paul assures her she sounded fine but Lilian's not convinced and fears Peggy will put two and two together.
