Summary

Lilian suggests to Alice that the Grange Farm land could be a good acquisition for The Stables. Perhaps Harry might have an opinion? Alice admits he gave her his card, but she dismisses Lilian’s urge to matchmake. By coincidence, Harry appears with treats for Sadie. Lilian launches into her idea of creating an equine wellness centre, while Alice is cagey, keen to end the conversation. Later, Lilian tells Alice off for being rude to Harry. Alice apologises and Lilian points out that spending a bit of time with him wouldn’t be the end of the world. Alice rings Harry to apologise for her behaviour earlier. Harry tells her not to worry. Before hanging up Alice says perhaps she could still take him on that tour of The Stables sometime. On their way to Ruairi’s birthday party, Kate justifies saying no to Alan’s idea of church yoga sessions. Jakob tells her Alan’s vetoed this year’s Christmas tree to save money. Kate then rules herself out of volunteering to help produce a Christmas show. On arrival at the party, Jakob spots no-one else is in costume - Kate forgot to tell the others. Jakob feels like a prize idiot, dressed as a centurion. Both Ben and Alice try to make Jakob feel better, while later on Kate admits she was wrong about Jakob - he’s a team player when it counts. Jakob then reveals he’s helping Usha with the Christmas show and thinks Kate should help too, if she wants, whatever Peggy’s position. Kate agrees to do it, just for Jakob.
