Roy questions himself and Jakob makes his feelings clear
Lilian’s pleased that Aziz has lost thirteen kilos in the first week of his new diet. Jakob reminds her that there’s still a long way to go, but congratulates her on the good start.
Roy is in low spirits. He has to deal with boring admin at work and then go home to an empty house. He admits to Kirsty that he feels as though there’s nothing exciting about his life at the moment.
Lilian stops Lynda outside the pub and tricks her into donating to the Lent appeal by paying her numerous compliments. Lynda donates but refuses to return the compliments.
Philip suggests that he and Kirsty hold their wedding reception at the Brookfield Barn. Kirsty agrees, and asks Philip if he’d be happy for them to have one extra guest at their ceremony. Later, they arrive at Willow Farm and explain to Roy their plans for a secret wedding. They’d like him to be their joint best man.
Jakob arrives at Spiritual Home and demands that Kate listens to him. She’s taught him that he can deal with the unexpected. If it’s a choice between a quiet existence alone or a life of anarchy with Kate, he’d choose her. Kate admits that she’s happy to be back at the lodge; Jakob was difficult to live with. He can’t believe her cheek, when she was impossible to live with. The two laugh and play-fight one another.
