Episode Synopsis by BBC Worldwide

4. A Small Flourish

Ormston’s usually peaceful atmosphere is shattered when a certain Mr Tyldesley arrives in town. Not content with painting beautiful pictures of the local landscape, Dennis Tyldesley has taken to blowing up great swathes of it as well. After such an explosive introduction, Arthur, Brewer and Boynton confront Mr Tyldesley to ask just what he is up to, But, much to their annoyance, Dennis is not forthcoming, saying he is sworn to secrecy.

Meanwhile, Deborah is concerned for her friend Janet Gough. Janet is having a tough time of it with her husband Hubert who is at home recuperating after a major operation. Hubert, the local cobbler and philistine, is insanely jealous of his young, attractive wife and suspects she is planning to run off with some arty type like Mr Tyldesley.

Elsewhere, Len and Linda are preparing for their visit from the social worker who has been sent to approve their application to be foster parents. As expected, things don’t run smoothly and the inspector turns up just as Linda returns from the Signalman’s after drinking too much Ormston Dew. Len and Linda are distraught but Tom convinces the foster care worker they would make super parents and their application is passed.

Tom and Deborah begin to investigate Mr Tyldesley’s motives for blowing up parts of Ormston, and after a near-fatal accident he informs them that a road is going to be built – right through the village.



5. Thick As Thieves

It’s all change in Ormston, as two newcomers arrive and have an immediate and memorable impact on village life.

Len and Linda are expecting their first foster child, a two-year-old boy called Nat. But Nat turns out to be a hard-as-nails 12-year-old who can’t keep out of trouble. Len and Linda are disappointed, but throw everything into looking after the boy, only to quickly realise that fostering isn’t going to be easy.

At the Signalman’s, the consequences of the pub being sold to the brewery are beginning to be felt. Rita Lennox has been sent by the new owners to lay down some rules and to tell Phyllis she will no longer be the landlady. Rita plans to get coach-loads of tourists in to sample a traditional English pub, but Phyllis, Deborah and the rest of Ormston have other ideas: they use some pretty underhand tactics, like packing the pub with smelly farmers when the coaches arrive, to undermine Rita.

What the villagers do not know is that Rita has a rare heart condition, and Tom is concerned that their continued campaign to oust Rita could be harmful to her health.
