At Brookfield, Josh and Pip move ewes and lambs to sheds for shearing. She tells him Matthew is going straight on to a new job in Northumberland which means he can't visit as they had planned.

She reminds Josh that Open Farm Sunday is supposed to be about Brookfield's cattle but Josh is determined to show off the pastured hens.
Brian finds Adam asks after the sowing of the maize and he mentions Justin wants to show his friend, Latif, around the Estate.
