The American landlady, Natalie Truss, wants to hold a posh garden party for her birthday on Ben’s favourite heritage meadow, a couple of weeks before he is due to mow it. Ben is aghast and must veto this without upsetting her. Cicely is worried that they could lose the farm. Luckily, Archie turns up bringing a self-help manual to heal his relationship with Beatrix, and Natalie is conveniently enchanted by Archie to change her plans.
