Jill finds the right words, and Fallon is left disappointed.

Having decided to go ahead with Open Farm Sunday, David and Ruth have been working hard to get things ready at Brookfield and are still checking up with each other about the various events booked for the day. Jill wants David to look over the eulogy she鈥檚 written for Peggy鈥檚 funeral and Ruth wonders what happened to all Peggy鈥檚 money. Jill then asks David if he will read the eulogy during the service, before he reads it out loud. Jill has written that after arriving in Ambridge in 1957 she and Peggy were friends for sixty-eight years. And it was Peggy who helped make her feel that one day she might belong in Ambridge. She valued Peggy鈥檚 honesty and straight talking and will miss her more than she can say. When David finishes Ruth proposes a toast to Peggy.

Alice and Chris meet on the way to Harrison鈥檚 surprise party at Woodbine Cottage, neither of them in the mood for it. When they get there Fallon quickly has them helping with last-minute preparations. Kirsty is there too, while Dane, on his second date with Helen, is reportedly looking forward to some karaoke, with Fallon having bought Harrison a karaoke machine. Kirsty thinks Chris and Alice are a bit on edge, while Fallon frets over Harrison not being there yet. And then she tells everyone that Harrison鈥檚 had to turn around and go back to Yorkshire! Fallon despairs. How can she have a fortieth birthday party for Harrison without him?
