Is Brad about to seize the day? Tony has a surprising plan.

Leonard brings back Tony鈥檚 unwanted guitar, now fully restored to working order. Tony hides his dismay and is genuinely impressed with the quality of Leonard鈥檚 repair. He admits reluctantly that he has no interest in the guitar. He鈥檚 going to have to tell Lilian. Later he tries to explain to Lilian that he has no memory of ever writing the letter to Father Christmas asking for one. Lilian鈥檚 wounded. She鈥檇 wanted to put right some past disappointments for Tony, and this seemed like a good way to do it. Tony assures her she did a very kind thing. He鈥檇 like to pass the guitar on to the younger generation and wonders if Mungo might like it. Lilian鈥檚 moved. She thinks Mungo will be delighted, and James and Leonie are keen for him to learn an instrument. Leonard spots that Lilian鈥檚 carriage clock has stopped. Lilian鈥檚 been meaning to get it fixed but hasn鈥檛 got round to it; it used to belong to their dad. Leonard offers to try and fix it. Tony says he鈥檒l lend a hand.
Brad鈥檚 finally bitten the bullet and arranged to meet Paige. He agonises over what to wear but Chelsea advises him to just be himself. After his date he reports to Chelsea on how it went. He admits he was nervous at first, but ended up having a lot of fun. Paige is great, and looked amazing. He鈥檚 messaging her to make sure she got home ok. Nice touch, says Chelsea 鈥� at this rate they鈥檒l be booking a double wedding!
