Robert considers making sleuthing his new hobby – he does need to find something to spark his imagination. Oliver suggests guiding at Lower Loxley. But Robert fancies going for Chair of the Cricket club – he admits he needs something he can do for himself, without Lynda’s involvement. Robert’s distracted as he sees a pair of ears – there are two hares!

Justin has a proposal for Stella, as he learns about what she’s doing to improve soil health.

Stella offers to the gents to have a think about the position on offer, and Justine privately warns Brian not to stifle Stella’s talent. But back to being friends, Justin asks if Brian is bringing anyone to the Grey Gables Ball on Friday. Having had a catch up with Pip and filled her in on today’s events, Stella makes her excuses. But Rosie needs Stella to read to her, so Pip says there’s no escaping just yet!
