A cottage on the Sizzlinghurst estate is in high demand - but Vera鈥檚 not in the mood to make a decision. Stars Miriam Margolyes.
Vera is still very angry with Ginny and Lionel for creating havoc at Sizzlinghurst while she and Henry were in the USA.

Nutwood Cottage, a pretty cottage on the estate. has become vacant and everyone wants it - the Goslings especially and, in a surprise reappearance, Venus whose excuse is that it would be the perfect location for her to nurse her husband in his 鈥渓ast weeks of life鈥�.
Meanwhile Ginny is desperate to get back into Vera鈥檚 good books and she and Lionel visit Scratchey and Barrington to house hunt for a weekend cottage. The hunt proves fruitless but inspires a fabulous idea.
