Justin is feeling patriotic, and Jim is getting ready to settle in.
Harrison reminds Justin about tonight’s meeting. Justin hasn’t forgotten; he’s looking forward to it. At the meeting he joins in enthusiastically. This is the sort of thing that brings not just villages but whole nations together. Paul gives Justin a Union flag to wave, and declares himself a superfan. After some more misunderstandings, Justin realises he’s at a Eurovision meeting, not a Coronation event meeting. He reluctantly accepts he has to go along with it.
Harrison has a friendly word of advice for David about his response to Jim’s demonstration. It’s always best not to inflame these situations. David acknowledges this. Harrison in turn lets Jim know he’s spoken to David just as Jim is leaving his house with a suitcase. David checks whether Ben’s got the room ready for tonight’s B&B guest. Ben hasn’t, and hopes there’s enough time before they arrive. When he answers the door to the guest, he’s wrongfooted to see Jim there. Jim announces he’s anticipating a very pleasant stay. David wants him to leave but Jim insists he’s a paying guest. David threatens to call the police again – Jim’s given a false name on the booking. His mother’s maiden name, replies Jim, and he paid in his own name. David’s deflated. Ben suggests they let Jim stay – he’ll have to check out in the morning anyway. David capitulates and Jim locks the bedroom door. Later they spot a huge banner hanging from Jim’s window. Again Ben recommends leaving Jim to it. David’s dubious; what if he won’t leave?
