It is the Harvest Supper, and Jill has a confession to make.

Bert and Joe argue over whose version of John Barleycorn to sing at the Harvest Supper. Joe argues that his is the original Borsetshire version - and besides, he's the oldest. Carol solves the problem by suggesting they do Joe's first and then Bert can sing his version as an encore.
Hayley confronts Elizabeth. She admits that the affair with Roy was not a one-off. They also got together at Loxfest.
Hayley makes clear to Roy that she knows it was Elizabeth who called the affair off, for the sake of her children. As Hayley packs a bag, Roy pleads with her not to go. But she says she needs to decide what to do, now that their marriage is over. Hayley loads the car to leave, telling a desperate Roy that he left her when he fell in love with Elizabeth.
Jill is disappointed that Elizabeth will miss the harvest supper because of a terrible headache. She worries about how awful Elizabeth sounded on the phone. Caught up in the festivities and reminded of Doris's favourite hymn, Jill has a funny turn and escapes for some air.
Outside, Jill confides in Carol that she had been prepared to leave Brookfield to support David. But now, particularly after tonight, she just can't. Jill feels too old to start again.
