Lynda is kept in suspense, and Alan gets a shock.

The Grundys head to the re-opening of the Village Hall. Ed is surprised that Alf left without saying goodbye. George has saved up and bought a nice Easter Egg for Emma. Clarrie and Alan discuss the total amount raised for the curtain fund - it's about four hundred pounds. Lynda stresses over the final preparations for the pageant - is a celebrity definitely coming to cut the ribbon? Lynda is on the phone to Jean Harvey, her back-up... when Anneka Rice walks in!
Anneka reminisces about the last time she was in Ambridge. She praises them for their community spirit in the face of floods and other troubles. She declares the refurbished Village Hall open. Justin frets that his character in the pageant is the villain of the piece. He wants to drop out but Lilian insists that would look even worse.
It's time for the pageant! While Justin is onstage, Lynda whispers to Anneka that she tried to reflect local power relationships in the casting. Afterwards, just as Alan is about to announce the total of the curtain fund, he finds the money has gone.
