Kurtan is focusing his attentions on the annual village scarecrow festival, a key event in the village calendar that can both unite and divide the community. Tensions run high when his chances of winning the competition are compromised by being given a less than ideal plot to display his scarecrow. Meanwhile, Kerry faces a challenge to her authority.
When the vicar's son, Jacob, returns from living in Bristol, can Kurtan help him re-adjust to village life? Meanwhile, Kerry continues to try to give back to the local community by visiting an elderly neighbour, Florence, for 'tea talk'. Florence's cat, Tudor, has recently passed away, and Kerry does her best to fill that emotional void.
It is the most important day of the year for Kerry - the annual steam fair. And as a bonus, this year it falls on her birthday, and Kurtan has organised her a surprise present. However, the present involves some walking, and so the cousins embark on a cross-country trek. This affords them the time to share some local village myths with the crew, such as the legend of the Fox Twins.
Family loyalty is vital in rural communities and Kerry's life-long ambition has been to work with her father, Martin. She is overjoyed, therefore, when he asks her to help him store some wares in a lock-up garage. A job at the local bowls club gives Kurtan a new sense of purpose, but when Kerry entangles Kurtan in her new venture, things start to unravel and the Mucklowe family loyalties are put to the test.
This one-off special investigates the fallout from Kerry's criminality. During the second series, Kerry’s trusting nature was taken advantage of and she became embroiled in a criminal enterprise with her devious father, Martin. As the police’s net tightened around the Mucklowes, Kerry was left with a direct choice: save her father or save herself. Eight months on, the crew returns to the Cotswolds to investigate what has happened to both the Mucklowe family and the village community as a whole.
