Helen hatches a plan and Susan’s confidence takes a knock
Susan puts out an appeal on her Radio Borsetshire show on behalf of Ben and Jill about the missing swarm of bees. Not many people are calling in, but she disagrees with her producer Danny that people are losing interest; they’re just busy doing other things. Perhaps they’re waiting for her to talk about herself again… She tries to drum up interest with topics inspired by her fellow Ambridge residents.
Kirsty mulls over what to do with the garden at Beechwood. Philip doesn’t come out to help her as he’s busy on the phone inside. Helen registers Kirsty’s low mood after giving her a call. She can appreciate why Kirsty isn’t happy at the moment. Meanwhile, Helen is feeling good with things looking up at Bridge Farm. Helen decides to organise a virtual hen party for Kirsty. Kirsty is looking forward to it. It even cheered up Philip when she told him about it. Helen’s pleased Kirsty will have a whole evening without worrying about Philip – it will be an absolute ball.
