Ben gives David a hand on the yard, appreciating the screen break. David jokes that Ben’s NHS work is to give him a break from the family farm. Ben observes his Dad can’t resist another dig over his views on inheritance tax. Joy asks if anyone from Brookfield’s available to help to check out the routes up Lakey Hill ready for the VE Day beacon lighting. Unsuspecting Leonard appears in the nick of time. He’s happy to help. He and Joy agree to meet tomorrow. David and Ben agree something needs to be done about dog walkers not picking up after their pets, risking neospora affecting livestock. David tells Ben he’s having some signs made to put up around Brookfield. Ben remarks on the hard hitting nature of the image but David maintains it needs to be impactful to get the message across.

Helen’s car’s in dock and she gets a taxi ride with Rex to collect it. She spots he seems a bit down. Rex admits that he doesn’t know what to do about a woman who’s blowing hot and cold with him. Over coffee Helen advocates action over standing still – there’s nothing brave in that. Rex confides he always puts his everything into a relationship. What if he keeps choosing the wrong person? He refers back to Pip. Helen reckons he’s just still waiting for the right one. Can’t he tell this woman how he feels? Sometimes it’s better to just know. The right person will recognise the good person he is. What’s the worst that can happen?
