Jim has some exciting news and there are unexpected visitors to the Ambridge book club.
Gardeners' Question Time is considering Ambridge as a venue to record the programme. Jim checks the hall's availability with Christine, who offers to help him fill in the programme's detailed questionnaire.
Caroline checks on Elizabeth and Roy. Elizabeth wants to discuss payment for Roy but Caroline's not looking for anything - they can sort something if he stays longer. Elizabeth's really touched by a photo Caroline has framed for Freddie and Lily, of Nigel on Topper.
Jim's first to arrive at the Vicarage for the inaugural book club meeting, closely followed by Caroline who arrives at the same time as uninvited Joe and Nathan. Joe hasn't even read the book and is more interested in telling his tale of the Civil War drummer boy, much to everyone's frustration. Joe enjoys the nice social occasion, especially the 'grub and that', and enquires about the date for the next meeting.
Jim believes the evening was a success but Usha's not so sure. Jim's still considering his book choice for the next meeting. It's going to be hard though, considering the thousands of classic books so dear to his heart.
