The following day they go to Buckinghamshire, where they spent time when they first dated in 1953, only to find that everything has changed. Judith leaves early to give them time together. Guest starring Cheryl Hall, Roy Heather and Mark Tandy.Īfter visiting Jean to tell her he is going to Norwich, Lionel joins her and Judith when they go out to dinner. Both feel very out of place with all of the young people, and Alistair tries to clumsily seduce Jean.
But, very shortly afterwards Lionel invites Jean to go to a party being held by Alistair that evening after he confesses to getting cold feet because Judith is trying to fire up the sparks of romance between her Mum and Lionel. When Lionel finds this out, he goes to see Jean and they then agree not to see each other again. Meanwhile, Sandy, Jean's secretary at Type for You, arrives to work for Lionel but is told he has checked out. Lionel doesn't call Jean and decides to leave the hotel before another secretary is sent round but, as he is leaving his publisher Alistair Deacon (Philip Bretherton) arrives and persuades him to continue with the revisions to his book My Life in Kenya. When they finally meet at the hotel Lionel is staying at to sort out what went wrong in the communications department all those years ago, they discover that Lionel's letter got lost in the post. The following day, Lionel tells Judith that he wrote, but Jean never replied. When Judith returns, Jean tells her that she and Lionel were in love 38 years ago, but when he was sent to Korea on National Service he never wrote to her. Judith quite likes Lionel and the two go out to dinner, but while picking Judith up at home (where she lives with her Mum) he recognises Judith's mother Jean Pargetter, the boss of Type for You, and old memories are stirred up. Jean's daughter and employee, Judith Hanson ( Moira Brooker), is sent over to placate him and apologise after the agency initially provided a sub-par secretary. We meet Lionel in the hotel he stays at while making changes to his book (the secretarial agency won't send female secretaries to single men's homes).
