Jill confides in Carol. Meanwhile, Jim turns up trumps for Eddie.

Bert Fry is busy working on Carol's new vegetable garden, respectfully calling her Mrs Tregorran. Jill points out it's just the way he is. Bert (the self-titled village laureate) looks forward to reading his poem at the harvest supper. Jill asks how music preparations with Joe and Eddie are going. Jill jokes to Carol that Bert is no great poet.

Eddie is keen to make some money from turkeys this Christmas. He asks Jim whether Romans used turkeys as part of any festivals. Jim does some research and turns up that Romans used chickens as oracles. Inspired, Eddie hatches a plan.

Bert is miffed with Eddie and Joe for giving him the runaround over the music for the harvest supper. Are they going to let him sing his song or not?

Jill admits to sympathetic Carol that Ambridge is changing. She's not sure she wants to stick around if Route B goes ahead. Jill is worried about the idea of David and Ruth moving to Prudhoe. They are looking at farms today.

Ruth is smitten by one farm in a nice community. David was shocked to see how frail Heather looked. However, Heather is adamant that they shouldn't move up north for her. Never mind my Mum, says Ruth - what about Jill?
