Usha's father shows his true colours.

It's the day of the church wedding. Chris notices that Joe's trap is being pulled by one of Shula's stable ponies. Ruth remarks to herself what a kind gesture this is.

Nervous Alan and Usha exchange vows in a moving ceremony, but afterwards Usha's horrified to learn that her father will be making a speech rather than Shiv, as expected. She begs Alan not to take anything Dr Gupta says personally. Her fears prove to be unfounded, however, when he describes his new son-in-law as an exceptional man.

Usha observes later that her father surprised her. Alan doubts whether Mabel will ever change her way of thinking. He'll just have to resign himself to it.

Rachel congratulates Neil on his best man's speech, and is pleased at the news that the Ambridge post office is safe from closure. Ruth remarks that Susan should get a lot of the business from Penny Hassett. Dr Gupta's puzzled by the sight of Lynda kneeling on the green, taking photographs; she's got some close-ups of him too. Neil realises it's for the photography category of the Flower and Produce Show.

Alan and Usha leave in a flurry of goodbyes, and no-one's sure who caught the bouquet.
