Philippa and Katie cover the week in Ambridge so far - Sunday 19th to Tuesday 21st July - and the theme of the week is spectacularly clear: nobody in Ambridge is talking to anybody properly.
Rex is moving in with Alice without any discussion about money, children, or who is going to cook. Chris finds out via Fallon rather than Alice. Harrison and Fallon are barely communicating and the awards ceremony could be the moment everything falls apart. Fallon hasn't told Jolene she wants to leave the Bull. And nobody has told Martha she might be going to Gozo.
Elizabeth returns and there is apparently an event space being renovated at Lower Loxley — which came as news to us. Alan reappears. Bert has his first shift at the village shop and is surprisingly good value. And people are charging five pounds to get into the Ambridge fete.
Plus: thoughts on the Barn event space and what it means for Brookfield, Carol and Alan's very odd moment, whether Bert is the new Jim, and a plea for absolutely nothing to happen during the two week summer break.
Back on Wednesday 13th August.
