Overview
Uncle Silas has only one real rival likely to beat his roses in the forthcoming show - retired soldier Walter Hawthorn. Ned is fascinated by Walter's collection of military memorabilia; Silas is fascinated by 'Topsy' Turvey, the local district nurse. Will this diversion give Walter his break or is he falling prey to painful memories of the past?
