The Grange Farm cattle are in great shape and milking well but Ed is concerned about the TB tests coming up in three weeks time. Oliver reassures him that his biosecurity is as good as it can be. They discuss the idea of a voluntary badger vaccination programme.

Tom's sausages are selling well in The Bull. He is optimistic about the business and convinced that rebranding is the answer. Brenda is hurt that Tony has said she can't go along to the Bridge Farm family meeting. Local food writer Shelley Brazil has tweeted the footballing pigs video. Tom is thrilled when he sees that the video now has 23,000 hits!

Clive has a dig at Susan for making all the arrangements following their mum's death without involving anyone else. The funeral is going to take place the following Thursday. Susan is worried that her Dad is still in shock and hasn't been able to show much grief.

Some of Ed's young stock have got out on the Waterley Cross road. He has to enlist the help of Oliver, Tom and Brenda to get the cattle secured back in their field. He is concerned that someone might have let the cows out deliberately.
