The villagers are annoyed by an NY Estates van speeding round the lanes. The man driving it, Neil Batt, calls into The Woolpack and informs Amos that he's moving to the area. Amos takes a dislike to him. Sam and Annie pick up on tension between Dolly and Matt. Dolly feels responsible for Jessie being ill seeing as she left her to look after the washing which led to her getting a chill. Matt tries to make her see that she's not responsible but Dolly won't listen. She worries about who will look after Jessie when she comes out of hospital.
