Chris finds his confidence knocked, and David puts his foot in it.

David tries out several unfunny jokes on Pip and Stella for The Gagricultural Show. Their unenthusiastic response leads David to suggest reviving Brookfield’s Sound of Music Eurovision entry instead. But with Josh potentially unavailable, David and Pip think Stella would be a great addition to the team. Stella isn’t keen but is soon persuaded, if they have a full dress rehearsal in church. They will need Jakob to change his mind about not rehearsing the show at all, though. There’s an embarrassing dad moment as the thought of Stella in lederhosen prompts David into some ill-advised remarks about her legs, before Stella outlines her demands: they go on first and have an endless supply of triple chocolate cookies in her dressing room!
Whilst sorting Martha’s Christmas presents into different piles at Ambridge View, Alice broaches the subject of Harry with Chris. Chris covers that he’s fine about it and Alice is grateful he’s taken it so well. Later, Chris talks to Susan about making sure Martha’s presents are well hidden, so she doesn’t find them before Christmas Day. Chris and Emma did once, only for Neil and Susan to swap their presents out for other ones because they knew what they’d done. Susan then susses something isn’t quite right between Chris and Alice, before Chris confesses his true feelings about her seeing someone else. It’s been a shock and it hurts. Susan is sympathetic, but advises Chris not to dwell on it. He has to get on with his own life, his and Martha’s.
