Nervous Susan has a riding lesson. With some coaxing from Lilian she gets in the saddle. She’s not at all comfortable with it at first, and particularly unimpressed with Emma taking photos. However Emma assures her she’s the bravest person she knows, and today’s about facing another challenge. As the lesson progresses Susan realises she’s actually doing it and begins to really enjoy herself. Emma whoops that her mum’s just nailed the first of her ‘six at sixty’ birthday challenges. Josh goes cap in hand to Jim, in the hope of reinstating Jim and Kiki’s booking for the harvest supper now that the Straw Crows have cancelled. Jim had found out from Chelsea that this was the case, and enjoys the moment of karma before refusing Josh. Instead he asks Josh for a lift – he owes him a favour. Once they’re underway Josh discovers they’re heading to Kiki’s, to get her back on board. Jim explains that whilst he wanted Josh to squirm, he doesn’t want the whole village to suffer. However they’re too late, and they find out Kiki’s gone away for the weekend. The gig’s off. Jim apologises, but Josh acknowledges this is all on him. Jim invites Josh to the Lark Rise to Candleford readings, and Josh is happy to accompany him. They all settle in cosily at No.6 The Green with hot chocolate and candles, and the evening’s a success. Jim and Josh agree that their harvest supper entertainment dilemma is solved - they will recreate Lark Rise by Candlelight!
