Brian struggles to keep his temper, and Kirsty is less than impressed.
It's Open Farm Sunday, and Pip enjoys showing off Brookfield and Bridge Farm's cows to the crowds. Helen persuades her to take a break, and they discuss baby names. Pip's getting enormous, but she and Toby still haven't made any decisions. Josh arrives late - he's been chatting with potential customers, and tries to persuade Pip to cover for him while he corners Cheryl, the Echo reporter. Pip refuses, but later finds Josh buying Cheryl a burger.
Kirsty tells Helen all about meeting Philip's son Gavin. Gavin was rude about the restaurant and refused to leave a tip - it was pretty awkward. But Kirsty can see how proud Philip is of Gavin. Helen's gong to Bristol on Wednesday for the Food and Farming awards final. She's worried that Olwen's comments have ruined her chances, but Kirsty reassures her that she'd be a worthy winner.
Brian's been telling anyone who asks that Kate is "away on business". Brian's determined to press on regardless. Kirsty's overheard contractors discussing the groundwater contamination, and David's had the full story from Ruth after accidentally overhearing a voicemail. Jennifer doubts Ruth told him that Brian allowed, then tried to conceal his part in, the contamination. But she reminds Brian that Kate could do real damage if she decides to tell the full story.
