There are conflicting views at Bridge Farm and David offers his support.

Pip thinks Elizabeth's a bit on edge, with Roy away. She wants to bring Freddie and Lily over tomorrow, so they can see Tig the puppy again. Ruth suggests laying on a nice tea for the twins. Pip is fretting about her A level results but hopes she and Spencer will get away in September.

Pat and Tony are being hounded by a journalist. Pat wonders if they ought to make a statement but Tony refuses to be bullied by the press.

It's a relief when the next knock on the door is David. Pat tells him the E coli was down to a member of staff but mentions no name and asks David to keep it to himself. David suggests the NFU could advise on how to deal with the media enquiries.

Tom wishes he could say more to the press so is pleased to hear that Tony has listened to David's suggestion. After talking with the NFU press office, Tony agrees to make a statement. Tom still thinks they should sack Clarrie but Pat and Tony won't hear of it. Tom's adamant it's their best option.

Tony has put together a press statement and is ready to send it off. It will be in the Borchester Echo on Thursday.
