Pip is determined, and there is bad news for Ed.
Pip tells Jill the latest on the Brookfield sale and move to Hadley Haugh. They won't be leaving Brookfield quite as soon as they'd planned, as the building conversion and the robotic milker setup will take a few months. David will need to speak to Justin Elliott to see if they can stay on at Brookfield as tenants after the sale.
Pip helps Jill clearing and boxing up old things in the attic. They find Elizabeth's old dolls and the lettered baby bricks that Jill and Phil used to come up with Kenton and Shula's names. Snappy More interested in getting a meeting with Justin, David has no time to look through old stuff, such as the old model farm of his that Jill has dug out.
As Emma talks through dress ideas with Susan, Ed is preoccupied by a letter from the Estate. He plays it down as a little mix-up about the rent.
Ed interrupts Eddie from pheasant plucking to get some urgent advice. Ed's received a Notice of Forfeiture for the fifty acres of land he rents. It t looks like he's going to be turfed off it.
Ed tells Emma the truth, as Eddie assures him he'll be ok. Ed must call the Tenant Farmers Association tomorrow.
