Brookfield welcomes their first ‘mock’ official booking at the B and B; Ms Innis Pectre-Goole, aka Lynda Snell. Ben’s really keen for Lynda to test out their facilities, but David’s not so sure. Especially when Lynda criticises half-naked David for washing in the kitchen sink, having come in from calving. She reminds David that it isn’t an episode of Poldark. Lynda keeps Ben on his toes as well, even pretending to have an allergy to Bess. Ben does his best to cater to her every whim.

Kirsty and Roy are invited round for dinner at Willow Cottage, cooked by Brian and overseen by Alice. Brian apologises for falling asleep at Roy and Kirsty’s and explains the meal is his way of saying thank you. When Brian’s out of earshot, Kirsty admits to Roy how bad she feels about having found Brian an imposition. Particularly since Roy had told her about his conversation with Adil who’d revealed he’d lost someone close. Roy asks Kirsty to keep his conversation with Adil to herself. They agree that Brian will be welcome at theirs any time. They chat about Grey Gables and how well it’s coming along, with designs for the new part of the building really complimenting the old part. Kirsty’s really supportive when, after a few minor cooking errors, Brian says that Jennifer would be mortified if she could see him. Brian tells Kirsty that it’s been really lovely having them over and emotionally admits to missing Jennifer terribly. Kirsty thinks that if Jennifer could see Brian now, she’d be really proud of him.
