Pat is on tenterhooks, and Elizabeth is proud of Freddie.
Elizabeth and David take the Gloucester heifer, Sorrel, to the Borsetshire showground ready for Freddie to show on Sunday. Elizabeth insists on giving her a brush and a spruce up - she needs to look her best.
Josh is nervous as he really wants Freddie to do well. Ruth and David are impressed with how seriously he's taken it. Freddie is feeling confident and can't wait for it to be Sunday. Elizabeth is pleased that Freddie is showing an interest in rare breeds as well as his horses. He takes after Nigel.
After a nervous wait, Pat and Tony are relieved when the TB test on 'Lonely Cow' comes back negative. Tony can now take her to market next week, and there really will be no more cows at Bridge Farm.
Later they reflect on their meeting with the financial advisor. Pat is keen on investing some of the money from the herd sale in a green energy fund but Tony is feeling cautious. Helen wants to invite Rob round for dinner. Pat acquiesces, although she isn't particularly enthusiastic about the idea.
