Jim is making a big effort for the bird watch. And Roy has a spare ticket for a grand day out.

It's the RSPB's Big Garden Bird Watch and Jim and Christine are out at the Lodge. Jim admits he's a bit hungover after a night at the Grange Farm cider club.

At the Bull, Rob gets Henry to join in with teasing Helen over her food which she doesn't seem to be eating up - unlike Henry who's wolfing down his roast beef. She needs to keep her strength up. Feeling unwell, Helen rushes off to the Ladies'. Henry goes to find Helen and tells her that he and Rob have a surprise, which turns out to be a big pudding for dessert.

Mike, Vicky and Bethany can't join Roy for his planned birthday day out on the Blackberry steam train line as Bethany is unwell. Roy asks Kirsty if she fancies it. Kirsty thinks it's a shame to waste the extra tickets (and perhaps is keen to avoid an awkward date with Roy), so she calls Helen. Helen's touched when Kirsty asks her whether she and Henry would like to join her for a day out. Helen phones Kirsty back in the evening to say yes please - she'll collect Henry from school early. Kirsty twigs that Helen is out in the garden - Helen says she's just putting feed out for the birds. Kirsty checks with Jim, who says this is unusual - unless Helen is feeding the owls!
