Ruth agrees to lend Alan a calf for the Nativity service, as she and Usha discuss it. Ruth also learns than Carol is coming to Brookfield for Christmas lunch (another thing she was unaware of, she half-jokes). Ruth admits it's great to have Jill back at Brookfield, but she's aware that it should be Heather living with them now.

Rob finds a speeding ticket belonging to Helen and asks about it. She explains that she was driving too fast because she was in a hurry to get home after lunch with Ian. At least Henry wasn't in the car, says Rob, reminding Helen of the danger he was in on bonfire night - she wouldn't want to do that again, would she? Helen's grateful that he's not angry with her.

At the Bridge Farm shop, Rob's annoyed when Tony stands his ground over the selection of some tables for displaying fruit and veg. Rob feels they're too old fashioned but Tony puts Rob in his place, pointing out they're in danger of the shop looking sterile and clinical.

Helen's pleased to pass Rob a message from Greenbury Farm Services - they want him to attend an interview for the job she spotted. Helen's sure they'll snap him up.
