The Fields' sleep is disturbed by a local farmer.

The Fields find themselves in trouble with the Mayor and the local authorities when they try to add some finishing touches to their garden. Hester and William get more than they bargained for when they win the village raffle.

Dax and the Marquis argue over a patch of land. Unfortunately for the Fields, their landlord decides to seel the property. William and Hester agree to go on a boating holiday with Emma, their son in law and grandson.

With the house up for sale, Hester and William struggle to raise enough money to put in a serious bid. Things are made worse when the Trendles express a keen interest in purchasing the property.

The day of the house auction arrives, but Hester and William are concerned their bid will not be the highest.
