Jill makes a discovery that could change everything and Fallon wrestles with more than one problem

Fallon鈥檚 fretting over Johnny鈥檚 lost winning scratchcard, but Alice can see something else is wrong. After a little coaxing Fallon confesses she鈥檚 struggling to find a way to tell Harrison she definitely doesn鈥檛 want children. She鈥檚 tried, but she鈥檚 scared. There鈥檚 an awkward moment when Fallon asks if Alice and Chris have had any similar conversations, before Alice admits she鈥檚 pregnant. Fallon鈥檚 delighted, and promises she鈥檒l keep it to herself. Alice is eager not to turn into a boring parent, but Fallon assures her there鈥檚 no chance of that; she鈥檚 the life and soul. Alice reckons Fallon needs to face the music about both the lost scratchcard and her big decision. Later Fallon declares Johnny was lovely and understanding about the scratchcard, but she鈥檚 still working on how to approach Harrison.

Jill has loved her birthday party and photographic timeline. She might get a couple of them framed. She comments that Ben鈥檚 cake was a triumph. She鈥檚 grateful for everything, and loves Leonard鈥檚 painting of Brookfield. She鈥檇 like more adventures, but fears she鈥檚 too old. Nonsense, declares Ben, and takes her for a spin in his car. He admits he鈥檚 finding it weird being a Fresher without any of the up-close experiences of university life this year. Jill sympathises. As they rest by Marneys field they spot some old coins. Jill thinks they may have stumbled upon some treasure.
