Jennifer's preparations for Debbie and Marshall's visit have gone into overdrive; she wants all the family together for a special lunch. Brian tells Adam there's not much chance of getting Lilian and Matt to come along. He and Jennifer saw Matt at Grey Gables, knocking back the scotch. He's still resentful about Brian's election to chair of Borchester Land.

Mike's meeting Vicky at The Bull - it's her first time in Ambridge. He invites Brenda along. Vicky's been dying to meet her, but Brenda says she's got too much revision to do.

Before Vicky arrives, Neil invites Mike to the birthday celebration that Susan's organising for him; they're just having a few friends over for lunch on Friday. When Mike invites Vicky along, it's too awkward for Neil to say no. Brian comments that Vicky seems a little young for Mike but Neil tells him that Mike seems very taken with her.

Mike invites Vicky back to Willow Cottage for a coffee. They discover a teary-eyed Brenda watching a weepy movie. She greets Vicky before quickly retiring to bed. Vicky advises Mike to go and check if she's alright. She'll leave, it looks like Brenda really needs her dad.
