Episodes
Episode 1
A year after her husband's death, Sal is finding the anniversary hard to deal with, especially since the rest of her family seem to have forgotten. James continues to run his father's surgery, but his appalling bedside manner causes Sal to attempt some on-the-job training.
Episode 2
Tash is packing her rucksack for Glastonbury, gearing up to climb over the fence. Spike outrages her when it transpires that he has actually bought a ticket. Her son Raph is in tow (reluctantly), complete with fairy wings. Of course, Tash's plan fails, but to call Caroline, who is in the VIP campsite, would be to admit defeat. Caroline has problems of her own, though, trying to stop the Magic Numbers from breaking the swingball set.
Episode 3
Sal has organised a ramble for the whole Guild, seeing it as an opportunity to have a nice stroll and a chat with friends. Sal thinks Spike would be abetter boyfriend for Tash than Marcus and tries to steer Spike towards this goal. Sal and the Guild find themselves lost in a fast-descending impenetrable fog.
Episode 4
The men are disappointed when the annual Clatterford Roundheads v Cavaliers battle re-enactment is cancelled after Health and Safety concerns. It's the Guild to the rescue,though, who come up with an alternative safe plan to save the event; one that includes a giant Soduko and a speed knitting contest. The simmering rivalry between Spike and Marcus over Tash's affections ends in a beer-fuelled clash on the novelty battlefield.
Episode 5
Clatterford Guild's continuing rivalry with the Guild from neighbouring Hole rears its ugly head in the form of a duet of sporting grudge matches - first netball and then crown green bowls, with all pressure on Rosie in the final moments. Meanwhile, Spike has written a love letter to Tash and offered her a dramatic ultimatum - 'leave Marcus and meet me by the Twisty Tree' - or he will give up on their love.
Episode 6
Tash accepts Spike's proposal of marriage and they decide to organise their own unique wedding ceremony. When it all gets a bit too much, a distraught Tash throws herself at Sal's mercy. Secretly delighted to be able to organise her daughter's big day, Sal enlists the help of the guild to create a magical Faerie Wedding by a babbling brook, with bewinged flower fairies, and a final magical send-off party for the happy couple.

Upon arrival, Elizabeth befriends Abigail Stanton, a wife and mother whose husband, the foreman of the mine, along with a dozen other miners, has just been killed in an explosion. The newly widowed women find their faith is tested when they must go to work in the mines to keep a roof over their heads.

Wild Cards
Wild Cards follows the unlikely duo of a gruff, sardonic cop and a spirited, clever con woman. Ellis, a demoted detective, has unfortunately spent the last year on the maritime unit, while Max has been living a transient life elaborately scamming everyone she meets. But when Max gets arrested and ends up helping Ellis solve a local crime, the two are offered the opportunity to redeem themselves, with Ellis going back to detective and Max staying out of jail. The catch? They have to work together, with each using their unique skills to solve crimes. For Ellis, that means hard-boiled shoe leather police work; for Max, it means accents, schemes and generally befriending everyone in sight, while driving Ellis absolutely nuts. Against the backdrop of beautiful Vancouver — with all its unique, charming, and even contradictory neighbourhoods and subcultures — the two will have to learn what it means to trust another person and maybe actually become partners.
