Philippa is on her own one last time this week. Katie is back next Tuesday and every week after that. So get yourself a cuppa and pull up a chair, because we need to chat.
This week in Ambridge
Harrison is not reading the room, the house or the village. There’s the dishwasher, the milk and the Chardonnay, and that very awkward evening with Fallon. Meanwhile Lily is parenting everyone. Elizabeth is struggling, and Philippa thinks it’s time to send counsellors door to door across Ambridge.
Freddie brings back his school meals idea. We recap what went wrong in 2025 and ask whether he has learned from it, as the consignments at Casey Meats start to back up.
Lynda puts her foot in it with Alan, who could really just Google himself. The flower arrangers’ rota WhatsApp group is busier than ever. Martyn talks to Lynda about agility equipment, sand pits and swimming pools for dogs. Neil is happy to take redundancy, but what does that mean for Hannah and Jazzer?
Your questions
How bad is the meat situation going to get? Would you have called Vince in hospital about the business? Is the dog field worth the money? And who is your star and your twit of the week? Please disagree with Philippa. She loves it when you do.
Coming up
Philippa’s interview with Sunny Ormonde, who plays Lilian, is out this weekend. Part two, with your questions from the Facebook group, follows two weeks later.
