Ruth lends an ear, and Josh only has one focus.

Josh is mesmerised by the first "sold" sign on his Ambridge Farm Machinery website. David moans about Josh's lack of help with lambing. Ruth reminds him there was a time when David was distracted in the lambing season. David wishes his son was more thoughtful like Lily who has sent a gift to Lynda in apology for almost running her over.

Rex has already collected the eggs by the time Josh finds him. They agree how much Rex will get from the sale of the Home Farm plough as long as Rex sticks to spending an hour a day promoting the website. Later, Anisha gets into a taxi and is surprised to find Rex is driving it. She's just had lunch with the stud farm manager who she's hoping will become a client. Rex updates Anisha on the cricket - Harrison wants to hold an EGM to have another look at allowing women to play.

Tom looks to get hold of a contact that could help improve Bridge Farm's veg boxes, via Ruth. He tells her about pulling out of going to the Nuffield conference in Brazil. Ruth shares her own experience of miscarriage and tells him it will get easier. Ruth asks if it's not too late to change his mind about pulling out of the conference and the whole scholarship.
