Lilian’s upset that the other people-carrier, driven by Jakob, was left behind at the Services and has now broken down. Tony and Helen assume they’ll catch up later, while Kate and Ruairi are sleeping in the back. Then Justin phones, explaining they’re being towed to Blackpool before a replacement is found. The others: Alice, Natasha, Phoebe and Jakob, seem okay with this, he tells Lilian, though he’ll catch a train home. But as Lilian arrives at the spectacular castle she insists Justin’s got to come! Leonie greets Lilian et al with news that they’re staying in the stable block, not the castle - and James isn’t coming. Hazel’s not there yet either. Helen discovers they’ll be sleeping in bunk beds, while Tony points out they’ve got some of the wrong luggage, before going for a river walk with Helen. They meet Finlay, a local crofter, who lends Tony his fishing gear, while Helen is very taken with him and his dog, Dash.

Leonie tells Lilian that James never wanted to come, hinting that they live pretty separate lives. Finlay invites Helen and Tony to visit his croft later in the week, before going to round up his sheep. Helen then cooks a fish Tony caught, while Tony calls Justin for Lilian, who’s got no signal. Justin explains they’re still in Blackpool and making the most of what it has to offer. He doesn’t know how long they’ll be there, before ending the call, leaving Lilian in the dumps. Tony and Helen agree though, they’ve had the best afternoon in ages!
