Amy Faulkner,whose young son Stuart is in a wheelchair after contracting tubercolosis, takes him to the church to touch it but her husband James,who has arranged to send the boy to see a specialist in Manchester,is angry and smashes the statue. Inside is a medieval map of the heavens and Stuart and Michel,both amateur astronomers, use it to run off and try to view a comet due to enter the Earth's orbit. The villagers send out a search party and James and his son are reconciled as the comet appears.Jean is given 'Pygmalion' style lessons in etiquette by Phyllis and Deborah in order to get her a job with antiques dealer Freddie McClintock.
