Tom discovers some worrying information and there鈥檚 an early Christmas present for Kirsty.
Buoyant Tom鈥檚 pleased that Bridge Fresh is doing well. He admits to Natasha he鈥檚 glad they didn鈥檛 get Peggy鈥檚 money; it would have distracted them from their main business. Later Natasha returns from making over Joy with her ear well and truly bent; Joy wouldn鈥檛 stop going on about Tony! She clearly has a massive crush. Tom鈥檚 appalled when they work out Tony was with Joy on his parents鈥� anniversary. Natasha defends Tony. He鈥檇 be mortified if he knew Joy might be keen on him. And Pat was fine about the anniversary, it鈥檚 no big deal. Tom insists either way something鈥檚 not right.
Kirsty teases Philip fondly about his growing display of Christmas lights. He spots how downcast she is as she struggles with grant applications for the playground, and returns later with the news that he鈥檚 offering to do the refurbishment himself, for a reduced fee from the Parish Council. Kirsty鈥檚 delighted.
Tracy tries to sneak Roman off for lunch, but curious Susan tracks them down and muscles in on their date at the Tearoom. She gives Roman the third degree before pronouncing he鈥檚 passed muster. She can tell Tracy really likes him. Her one piece of advice to Tracy is not to mess it up this time.
