Jill's comforted to have Shula with her at St Stephen's, and praises her to Alan. With Nigel's birthday on Wednesday they know it'll be a tough week for Elizabeth. Jill doesn't think it's a good idea that Elizabeth's decided to go on a day course with Roy, on historic houses, on Nigel's birthday. Alan suggests Jill needs to trust Elizabeth.

It's the South Borsetshire Hunt puppy show at Netherbourne. Christine congratulates Shula on a wonderful spread. Lily hopes she can be a puppy walker one day. Oliver's a bit embarrassed that Caroline isn't with him but the event goes well.

When Caroline finally arrives, Shula warns her that she's in the doghouse. Oliver tells Caroline that he feels thoroughly let down on such a big occasion. Caroline explains to Oliver that she's been short-staffed due to illness. Oliver knew the extra work at Grey Gables would be a problem and points out that Caroline has let everyone down. Caroline feels awful, as Oliver gets back to his guests.
