To the Manor Born
Episode #113
With butler Brabinger back in the Fforbes-Hamilton household, Audrey should no longer be fetching in her own firewood. But, Brabinger is still confined to light duties and so is Audrey when she puts her back out. Richard is extremely attentive while Audrey is laid up - even inviting her on a skiing holiday should she recover in time. But his confidence in his own skiing ability is seriously affected by a mishap incurred while practicing.
