As they work together at Berrow Farm, Neil and Jazzer ponder who is the fete’s celebrity guest and share their experiences of having a Horrobin woman as their significant other. Jazzer makes light of Tracy’s quirks while Neil is heavy-hearted about Susan always having to have the last word. A call from Shula interrupts the conversation. Jazzer and Neil can see her on horseback in the distance. During her call to Neil, the horse spooks and Shula is thrown to the ground. While Jazzer calls an ambulance, Neil talks to Shula who’s out cold. She comes round and he tells her not to move, she may have broken her arm. With rising emotion, Neil tells Shula she will be fine; he’s with her and not going anywhere. David and Ruth are reflecting on how all seems well at Brookfield when Shula calls round to collect her beef order. She’s off on her ordainment placement soon which she’s looking forward to but wishes it wasn’t happening at such a busy time of year for her. David and Ruth have noticed that Neil is spending a lot of time at the Stables. Shula explains the gardening work he’s been doing for her has been respite for him from the fallout of Alice’s alcoholism. David reports a problem with some of Josh’s hens. Their laying has reduced and the eggs they are producing have unusually fragile shells. Alistair’s coming to take a look. It could mean Josh won’t be able to fulfil the orders he’s secured with big local businesses. Ruth insists that David doesn’t get involved but let Josh sort it out himself
