Even Sergeant Nokes thinks the complaint is overrated. To everyone's surprise/disbelief, it turns out that Alf Ventress was a commando during the war, and the noisy old men were in his unit, in town for a reunion. Greengrass organises for the men to go game shooting on Ashfordly Estate, but they hear a gunshot, and Matty Lovell is found dead in the forest. Mike Bradley had earlier found a half-burned letter from Lovell to Charlie Penwarden apparently confessing to fraud, but soon works out that letters can be burned in a deceptive manner. Greengrass gives his views on dying, which helps Maggie decide how to handle Graham's dying mother, Molly Rysinski (who wishes to leave hospital to die elsewhere, against Graham's wishes). Gina Ward "teaches" Phil Bellamy what 'collusion' means.

Enid witnesses an assault (while walking on a hill) and reports it at the Police station ... only Craddock is reluctant to take the report – as it turns out, Enid is his mother, who has a habit of making things up! But the assault is confirmed when a woman matching the description collapses at the Aidensfield Arms and is admitted to hospital. The perpetrator is a lot closer to home than you would think. Enid's bet was a winning one, but Greengrass can't find the ticket, and he (with David Stockwell) spends a night in the cells while trying to find the ticket.

But this is no ordinary burglary, when PC Mike Bradley checks a school jacket left behind. It's from a boarding school some distance away, where the boy's name is given as Tom Bamber. There's a further twist with John Monks, a House Master (teacher) from the school, who is hunting Tom down. Bernie Scripps meets an old friend, Stanley Leroy, who says he can run tours to meet various singers and stars.

It appears someone is playing Robin Hood, as anonymous envelopes containing money, with detailed letters, start arriving for people like Henry Todd (to pay an overdue fine/penalties), a young mother (restitution for shoplifting, to avoid jail), and Hetty Roberts (travel fares to visit her husband's grave at The Somme). But Blaketon has suspicions about the money when he realises that Danny works at a casino in Leeds, with David Stockwell eventually being led into a trap.

When Mr Stringer's son goes missing, and a ransom note appears, the Police quietly investigates, and David Stockwell winds up in the thick of the action.

A Smith 'n' Chip (Fish 'n' Chip shop owned by Tony Smith) is burned down in an arson attack. Suspicion initially falls on Jack Hall, fiancée of Sylvia Smith (Tony's sister). Jack Hall is resentful against Tony Smith because he has never helped look after Sylvia's mother, who requires constant care. But then when Police delve into some electricity bills, a very interesting story emerges. An old flame of Oscar Blaketon, Ursula Donne, makes an appearance, but she goes for Lord Ashfordly (another old flame).

And then Joe's wife is found bludgeoned to death. Jackie Bradley (Lambert) agrees to act for Jacob Fairbrother but that puts her offside with Edwina, her mother – who is good friends with the Henderson's.

She's also complained about a prowler late at night. Mrs Barton's niece, Glenda Marriot, is trying to make her sell the farm and move into an old people's home (there's also a war of words about Mrs Barton letting the farm get into such disrepair). David Stockwell volunteers to drive her horse to the auctions (because Jed is not available), but when David crashes, the Police are mystified. There's a new Special Constable (Harold Emney) in town, but he turns out to be a loose cannon. Alf Ventress sees Gina Ward leaving the Maternity Ward of the hospital, and everyone ''except Gina and romantic suitor Phil Bellamy'' finds out that she's "pregnant".

Bill Dyer confronts the local auctioneer, Giles Sutton, accusing him of rigging the livestock market ''(organising, or permitting, the four dominant buyers of livestock to take turns at bidding, leading to low prices)''.
