It's the Grange Farm open day and Oliver starts the day feeling anxious, even though Ed seems to have everything under control.

Lynda and Joe agree to walk there together from St Stephens, so there's no need for Teas to change hands by using Bartleby or the car. Both agree the new scheme's working well, although Lynda has been overspending somewhat and can't understand why she's had no takers for her services.

Lorna, Kathy's replacement at Lower Loxley, has come to find out all about farming, and although a bit shy at first she soon finds herself asking questions and getting involved in everything. The whole day goes really well and Lynda thanks Oliver on behalf of everyone.

Pat has to nip off early to get set up for this evening's harvest festival barn dance, which she and Tony are hosting. This also goes well and Pat takes the opportunity to thank everyone for all their support over the planning problem.

Ed's ready to leave but Oliver wants a quiet word first to thank him for today. Ed insists that today doesn't go anywhere near what Oliver's done for Ed in the past. So Oliver agrees they should call it quits.
