Ruth is reluctant to jump the gun and Jazzer is over the moon

Jazzer tries to get Alistair to try some of his home brew again; now he鈥檚 perfected the recipe. Tipsily they discover a winning scratchcard amongst the laundry. As Jazzer imagines the possibilities, Alistair encourages him to find the rightful owner. But Jazzer鈥檚 not up for wasting his time doing that. He鈥檚 convinced himself the card was his and he鈥檇 forgotten he鈥檇 bought it. He intends to spend the money on motorbike leathers.
Ben鈥檚 excited about the Brookfield coin find. He鈥檚 posted a picture online. Freddie teases him about his love life, notably Evie the archaeology student, who he believes is the main draw for Ben in all of this. In turn Ben attempts to turn the chat to Elizabeth鈥檚 dating adventures, but Freddie won鈥檛 be drawn on his mum. Ben persuades his reluctant friend to join him on a fieldwalk, though Freddie wants a cut of anything else they find.
Ruth is less than impressed with the notion of a fieldwalk. It would be very disruptive; they should be drilling grass seed on those fields, not digging trenches. They can plan it for next year. Ben pledges to get things moving before then. Later he reports the coins have been identified as Anglo-Saxon. This excites Ruth and she acknowledges it changes things. She points out to Ben that he can鈥檛 spread this news; it needs to be kept in the family for now. Ben doesn鈥檛 come clean and denies telling anyone outside of their household.
