Synopsis

'He is a changed man, Greta. A changed man. Those frosty blue eyes of his are not nearly so chilling as they were.'

When everyone is assembled, they find that it is a lavish wedding reception for two very surprising people.

It is the 150th anniversary of the village school and Kate - the head teacher - is arranging a big event.

But there is one problem of which she is unaware. In asking the previous head teachers to attend she has unwittingly placed the rector and his wife Caroline in an impossible situation...
