´óÏó´«Ã½

Chris, a vegan eco-friendly vet student hunk, comes to help with lambing and Dangerfield Farm is thrown into turmoil.

Cicely finds him controlling and struggles to cater for vegans, so Chris takes over the cooking. He makes himself indispensable to Ben, until he disobeys the farm-rules and inadvertently lets Toby the terrier violate Floss the sheepdog who’s in season. And Beatrix takes a shine to him, which brings Archie rushing down from London, only to find that he needn’t have bothered, because Chris has blotted his own copybook by letting slip his true feelings for Jane Austen.
