"You could wear a pink tie, to match my bouquet"

Dani fusses over wedding plans;  she tells Garry, “You could wear a pink tie, or would you prefer white?”   He simply mumbles, “Yeah, lovely,” so she continues to recommend a purple suit with orange spots, but this time he replies, “I don’t think orange suits me!”

"Are you still going ahead with that?"

Dani says there is so much to do with this “Poll Tax, which Garry corrects, “Deed Poll;  are you still going ahead with that?   Gwern will never be able to remember.”

Eifion is afraid that Eileen and Jim will want a cheap deal

When Cadno tells Eifion at the farm that she has found a buyer, he asks how long she has been planning this behind his back.   On hearing that it is Eileen and Jim, he is afraid that, as he got the farm cheap from Eileen, she will want the same deal.   Cadno hands him the paperwork, but he will not promise anything.

"Oh, you shouldn't have spent so much on me!"

Meic has a box delivered, and presents Anita with her birthday present a week early – a new slow cooker.   She says they can have stew for lunch.

"Why is Iolo always writing?"

At Y Felin, Catrin asks Britt why Iolo is always writing;  he says they are business ideas, but Britt reminds him he has not been outside all week, and he should speak to a professional.   He insists he is fine, and suggests a visit to the Deri to prove it.

"Will you help your sister organise her wedding?"

Dani finds Gethin, and asks if he wants to help his sister organise her wedding.   In the flat, she shows him pictures of bouquets, but he enquires, “Why change your name?”   

"Chardonnay sounds posh!"

In response to her being fed up with “Dani” and wanting to sound posh, Gethin looks up the name Chardonnay online on his phone, and shows Dani his findings, 

Suddenly, Dani loses her enthusiasm for the name

“A famous actress known for her rôles in adult films!”   

Dani is horrified;  “So she . . . ?”   “Yes,” replies Gethin.   Dani’s reaction is, “Yuck!   I shall have to think of something else.”   He tells her that changing her name will not change anything;  “You’ll still be his daughter.”   Dani is afraid that when people look at her they will think of Moc.   Gethin stresses, “What Moc did was unforgiveable, but it was not our fault!   

"You can't be scared, if you're marrying Garry!"

Be proud of ‘Dani Thomas’ – she is not scared of anything – and you’ve proved that by marrying Garry!”

Eifion tells Angela the latest developments, and is surprised at the valuation – £250,000 to £300,000.   With a little persuasion from Angela, he decides, “If they want it, they can have it!”   They will go out for a posh meal to celebrate.

Meic mentions Debbie's name, and Anita is put off her food

Anita and Meic enjoy their lamb stew, and reminisce about how they used to serve it to Darren and Dwayne when they were children.   Anita’s attitude changes when Meic suggests taking some for Debbie to sample, then they might serve it at the café.

"Come on, Iolo, I want a pint!"

As Britt and the children walk in the rain towards the Deri, Catrin urges Iolo, “Come on, Iolo, I want a pint!”   At the Deri, Iolo is quiet and wants nothing to do with anyone.   Cadno arrives, having been summoned by Eifion, on the way to his meal, and is given the good news that he will sell to Eileen and Jim.  

Cadno's troubles appear to be over

She is overjoyed and throws her arms around him.

Meic hopes there is enough hot water for him to have a bath before seeing Debbie this evening, which starts off Anita again;  “Why should I have half a bath just in case you have a date?   She has got you just where she wants you;  she wants to make a fool of you!   

"Has it occurred to you that she's after your money?"

Debbie, of all people!   Has it occurred to you that she’s after your money?”

Meic is angry;  “Has it crossed your mind that she might like me?   I don’t like the way you talk about her.   The truth is I’m enjoying myself – it’s a long time since I’ve been so happy.   Thanks for lunch, but you needn’t bother again!”

Scheming Eifion decides he does not fancy eating out

Cadno has to leave the Deri, and then Eifion says he has gone off the idea of eating out, so they go back home. 

Surprise meal, laid on by Eifion

Angela is surprised to see the table laid, and their chef, DJ, secretly engaged by Eifion for the occasion, tells them the starter will be ready in a few minutes.

Garry and Dani come into the Deri;  Catrin speaks to Dani, but Garry corrects her, “It’s Chardonnay.”   

"Hallelujah!" exclaims Garry

Dani however insists that she has changed her mind;  “Hallelujah!” exclaims Garry.

Iolo realises what he has done

As the group prepare to leave, Britt eats one of Catrin’s crisps, which makes her choke.   She grabs Iolo’s bottle of drink, but Iolo immediately and roughly snatches it, injuring Britts mouth.   

The result of Iolo's attack

Iolo then flees the scene, followed by Dani.   

"Tell Britt I'm sorry!"

When he reaches the door of number 7, he fumbles with the key, asks Dani to tell Britt he is sorry and disappears inside.

Garry tries to explain to the children that sometimes people do things without thinking.   Britt tells them that it is not his fault, he has OCD.   

"No, Garry!   Iolo needs help!"

Garry still wants to go and sort him out, but Dani stops him, saying that Iolo needs help.

Iolo cowers inside the back door

Iolo sits on the floor by the back door, frantically writing in his book, and reading out the words;  “I didn’t want to hurt anyone – if I hadn’t moved to Y Felin, it wouldn’t have happened – if I hadn’t gone out – I didn’t want her to suffer,” and then he sits, struggling to speak.
