Plot[]
Mavis panics when she is ordered up for jury service. Vera worries about her mother Amy Burton's health. Mike drives Susan into Derbyshire and shows her an isolated farm cottage, telling her that he's going to buy it so their child can grow up in the country. They go around the house but Susan isn't keen. Vera doesn't like the thought of Amy living on her own. Percy tells Mavis horror stories about jury service. She dreads it and gets drunk. Susan tells Deirdre that all Mike wants is a nursery maid. She realises that she's going to be stuck in Glossop all day changing nappies.
