The Archers - 20/12/2007

Lilian helps Jack choose a Christmas and an anniversary present for Peggy. It's hard work but he eventually buys her a crystal dog and cat. Lilian's delighted to learn that Matt has arranged for them to spend Christmas in Stephen Chalkman's cottage in Cornwall. They agree it'll be lovely - just the two of them! Jim apologises for forcing his strong anti-religious views on Daniel and claims to have profound respect for Shula's faith. He's grateful to Shula for taking him to the fracture clinic and is still sorry for giving away her casserole. He insists on making a pot of tea, refusing to take no for an answer, but it proves to be too much when he tries to carry it to the table. Before Shula can help, the teapot is in pieces on the floor. Kathy's back at Lower Loxley. Elizabeth wants to do everything she can to make things easier for her but all Kathy wants Elizabeth to do is keep out of her way. When Elizabeth insists they need to find a way to make it work, Kathy rushes out. She calls Kenton to tell him he was right. She can't do it and she's coming home.
