Episode 449 (16th May 1978)

Plot
Dolly receives a letter from her mother that clearly holds the worst of news. Mrs Acaster is still going on about the dress and demanding taffets. And now she's also got a bee in her bonnet about the reception. There's a new teacher for the local school and he goes by the name of Mr Moeketsi but he doesn't create a good first impression with Sam whom he splashes at the roadside when he drives through a puddle. In The Woolpack, Dolly and Matt are talking about Mrs Acaster while Sam listens. Dolly thinks that her mother is in a very odd frame of mind. As her Aunt Jessie would say, there's bound to be a terrible solution to the enigma - and guess who is about to arrive in Beckindale.
