Episode 5

Abby’s old friends, Jackie and Donna, come to the island for a hen weekend before Jackie’s wedding. Abby realises she has changed since coming to Ronansay and has grown less tolerant of her friends’ raucous behaviour. Relations become further strained when Jackie accuses Abby of leading Kenny on - and reach breaking point when Abby finds Jackie and Donna playing strip poker with Alfie (and losing). During an evening of heavy drinking at the Raeburn Hotel, the pair from London turn their lack of inhibitions on the men of the island, embarrassing Abby further. The next morning, Kenny and Jackie are discovered asleep together on the floor of the bar by a group of the islanders. Disgusted by how Kenny has betrayed and humiliated Abby, the islanders shun him. Under their disapproving stares, Kenny prepares to leave for good. Abby announces to the islanders that Kenny hasn’t betrayed her, their ‘marriage’ is a pretence created to give the opportunity of a life on Ronansay. If the islanders want them all to leave, they will. But one by one the islanders express their appreciation of what Abby, Kenny and the children have brought to the community, and ask them all to stay.
