Pressure mounts for Elizabeth, and Fallon wakes up to a shock.

It's the morning after Fallon's hen night, and Fallon urgently summons a hungover Jolene to Woodbine. Jolene arrives to find Fallon and Kirsty also nursing hangovers. They have two questions - how did Lynda's llama Constanza end up in Fallon's garden, and how on earth are they going to get it home? Harrison tries to escape to the cricket, but Fallon persuades him to tie a washing line around Constanza's neck as a halter. They've established that Lynda is away for the weekend, and hope to get Constanza home before anyone notices. Although this might prove to be a challenge, as they'll have to pass the busy village green...

Elizabeth apologises to Shula for missing her birthday tea party. But Shula understands that Elizabeth's problems with losing her license take priority. She's been dealing with unhappy customers and suppliers all week - many of them looking for refunds and compensation. At least Kenton's taken over the Real Ale Drinkers' AGM - he's being very supportive. Shula wonders why Lily isn't helping, and Elizabeth breaks down, describing their row last week. She hasn't heard from Lily since Friday. And she still doesn't know if Freddie will be fined, or referred to the Crown Court for a possible prison sentence. She doesn't know how much more she can take.
