Peggy has made up her mind, and Johnny helps out at Brookfield.

Johnny is sad about the pigs going. He asks Pat about it but all she can think about Helen who is being moved to the mother and baby unit. Pat is desperate to be with Helen for the birth. She has emailed DS Madeley, as recommended by Anna, to find out if she could be granted permission to be with Helen.
Johnny helps David, Pip and Josh cut the silage at Brookfield. It's a learning experience for Johnny who asks lots of questions and in return is quizzed on what he knows. Pip explains the pros of spring calving while Josh points out the cons. Johnny asks about the hens and Josh says they're up to 400 eggs a week. He says he could sell double that if they had them. The local TV news report has attracted interest. Pip and Josh fill Johnny in on Toby buying a drone to film the pastured hens.
While Pat is collecting Peggy from the doctors she gets a call from DS Madeley. She's told she's within her rights to apply to see Helen but the detective would be minded to recommend refusal. Peggy tells Tony the two of them should go to be with Helen. Tony thinks it's too far for his mum to travel but Peggy has decided: she's going and if Tony won't go with her she'll ask Lilian or Jennifer.
