Ambridge remembers the 1940s. It is Valentine's Day.

It's Saturday and the 1940s Valentine's Night dance at the Bull. PC Burns' gift has left Fallon grinning - a flower arrangement in the shape of a tea pot, referring to her Ambridge Tea Service.

Tina has waked out of Ambridge Organics with immediate effect, leaving Helen to take over. Pat is pleased to see Helen back at the helm and Helen admits it has given her a buzz.

Kenton welcomes everyone, offers cocktails and starts proceedings with an 'excuse me' dance. Rob's left stood up and feeling foolish, with Helen at the shop. Adam points out that Shula looks a bit glum too. Rob blames the scuffle he had with a hunt sab.

Carol enjoys Bert and Joe's rivalry. She first dances with Joe, who's disgruntled when Bert cuts in.

There are prizes for the dancing (categories chosen by Kenton). Neil and Susan win most loved-up couple, but Helen notices how loved-up Fallon and Harrison look. Joe and Bert are tied in the prize for most elegant dancing, both with Carol.

Adam tells Rob about his plans to marry Ian. Rob knowingly remarks that it's a special feeling knowing that you only have eyes for each other.

Helen admits to Adam that she's keen to get back to work at the shop. Rob appears, apologetic, and sweeps Helen on to the floor for a dance, wishing her a happy Valentine's Day.
