Rob gets a result, and Toby rolls the fleeces.
Helen missed the Hunt dinner last night, as Henry was unwell - Rob had mentioned that Henry seemed under the weather. Rob reports that she didn't miss much. Helen jokes about PC Burns' ongoing investigation into Fallon's missing bunting.
Helen and her family agree to close Ambridge Organics, although Pat was reluctant. Rob's pleased though and Helen feels a huge burden lifted. Helen and Tom want to sell it as a going concern. Rob hopes Helen won't be lumbered with the work selling the shop - he's available to help.
Pip steps in to replace Barney as catcher for the Brookfield sheep shearing. Ed and Jazzer do the shearing and Toby Fairbrother rolls and collects the fleeces, with a bit of coaching from Jazzer. Ed's embarrassed to nick his first sheep with the shears. Rex joins them and meets Pip and Jazzer.
Since Ed spoke to Charlie, asking to transfer his Estate land tenancy to the Fairbrothers, Rex and Toby have pressed ahead with a detailed business plan.
Pip goes to vote in the General Election, and manages to persuade Jazzer to go with her. This is the first time voting for both of them. Jazzer laughs - he's never been near a polling station before. His Ma won't believe her ears when he tells her.
