Adaptation of Stella Gibbons's comic novel of the same name. Following the death of her parents, 20-year-old Flora Poste (Sarah Badel) finds herself alone with insubstantial means in 1930s London. Fascinated by the little she knows of her distant relatives the Starkadders of Cold Comfort Farm in Sussex, she goes to stay with her aunt Judith Starkadder (Rosalie Crutchley) and a colourful array of cousins. There she finds a variety of earthy, passionate relations, dominated by Great Aunt Ada Doom (Fay Compton) who long ago saw "something nasty in the woodshed" and now holds the rest of the household in thrall. Flora decides to put to rights the lives of all of them.
Flora Poste, fascinated by the little she knows of the Starkadders of Cold Comfort Farm, considers visiting them.
Flora has moved into Cold Comfort Farm and has begun to size up the Starkadders.
Flora, helped by Reuben, has planted the idea of a preaching tour in Amos's mind. On returning from Elfine and Richard's engagement party she finds the Starkadders' counting unexpectedly in progress.
