Summary
At Rewilding Ambridge Mick asks if Joy can come to the unveiling tomorrow. Rex and Kirsty explain why it may not happen - they’re still waiting for Justin to let them know whether he’s fixed the problem of the undersized artwork. And when Mick sees it he agrees it should be much bigger. Kirsty still hasn’t got hold of Justin, but they can’t cancel until they know for sure what’s happening. By the end of the day Rex and Kirsty agree it’s too late to cancel now. But then comes the really bad news: Borsetshire Life are sending their Assistant Editor and he hopes the artwork will grace their next front cover, just when they don’t want the publicity.
Susan reports to Azra on how well their meal with George and Amber went, with Akram’s help. Susan’s impressed by Akram’s work at Bridge Farm, too. George comes into the shop and has a dizzy turn, before Azra insists he goes to A&E. She drives him, with Susan in the back and George feeling mortified by all the fuss, but Azra impresses on George the need for an all-clear on his head injury before he can start work. Later, Susan tells Azra that Amber’s with George at the hospital now and he’s had a scan. She gives Azra a bouquet of flowers to thank her, before Amber messages to say the scan was clear and they’re coming home. Susan and Azra compare notes on the virtues of constructive criticism, before Susan leaves Azra to enjoy the rest of her afternoon off.

| 1:26.3 | Only Joy's keen to see Peggy's art installation. Although if it's only for family, she'll understand. Oh, it's not that, Mick. She's very welcome, the more the merrier. Trouble is, we haven't really got the artwork yet. Hey? The unveilings tomorrow, isn't it? Well, we have a partial artwork. Which we cannot unveil on its own. No chance. So what are you going to do? Make one of yourself? Hey, hey, you could knock up some fancy prints now you've got your phone blocks and rolls back. We might have to. You're not getting how terrible this is, Mick? We've made such a song and dance about it. I literally begged the echo to send someone. They won't show up. They've barely made it to anything at Greg Eibald since I've been there. But we're expecting loads of visitors. Millions invited the great and the good from right across Borsetshire. So many people want to pay their respects to Peggy Woolley. And it's an ideal moment for the rewilding to get some great publicity. Or potentially the exact opposite. |
| 2:21.1 | Oh. Can't you cancel? Unforeseen circumstances? |
| 2:24.3 | We would if we could get a definite answer from Justin. |
