Eleanor is in a social whirl - first a hospital visit, then tea with Raymond's mother, and now a party. Whatever next?

Eleanor Oliphant is happy. Nothing is missing from her carefully timetabled life. Except, sometimes, everything. But one simple act of kindness is about to shatter the walls Eleanor has built around herself.
Abridged by Richard Hamilton.
Producer: Justine Willett
