A Place To Call Home

Inverness is shocked by the death of a young teacher whose fiance is serving overseas. Sarah volunteers to cover for her until a replacement can be found.

Sarah confronts Regina about her suspicions regarding the death of Milly Davis, but Regina calls her bluff and informs Sergeant Taylor, giving him a file she has collected on Sarah from her wartime detention in a concentration camp.

Ash Park prepares for the visit of the prime minister and his wife in support of George's election campaign. Sarah is turned away from the school after being told that parents are complaining about her communist sympathies.

On the day of the prime minister's visit to Ash Park, Regina is in her element making preparations, and George is happy to make a speech to his supporters gathered at the gates.

After the family conference at which George has firmly told them of his wishes, he immediately drives to Sarah to inform him of his long-term plans to divorce Regina and marry her.

Elizabeth suggests that James spends a few days in Sydney with Henry before it becomes impossible because of the impending election. Olivia agrees to James's departure and takes the opportunity to confront Harry, who is staying at Roy Briggs's farm.

Harry notices that Sarah is being followed, so Roy questions Gordon when he finds him waiting outside the hospital.

Carolyn and Jack visit Douglas on their honeymoon and learn that Sir Richard is up to his dirty tricks in persuading donors to cease funding the refuge for retired servicemen. Regina has her claws into Henry and attempts to blackmail him.

Sarah's friends and neighbours wait anxiously while she goes through a difficult birth in Inverness hospital, overseen by Dr Jack Duncan.

Having been called back from Italy by Elizabeth, Anna presents her with the manuscript of House of Lies. Sarah decides on the name of her new baby, and the trap to ensnare Regina is finally set, but will George read the manuscript?
