Brian tries to sweeten the pill.

Brian tells Adam he appreciates everything he does but Adam can't see it. Even though the digester is Adam and Debbie's enterprise, it's still dependent on the rest of the farm, and it'll have to make them a hell of a lot if they have to buy Ruairi out in thirteen years time! Brian agrees to discuss any possible changes with Adam and Debbie, and Jennifer's delighted to hear that Debbie's hoping to come over next week. She thinks Brian might have a change of heart but there's no convincing Adam.

Nigel's grateful that Kathy's running Hayley's school visits. She's also researched a replacement boiler. Although it's expensive, Nigel's going for a "green" biomass version. Lower Loxley wine is finally almost ready to sell.

Bert's not happy that Nigel and Mr Booth think Freda's looking great with her new haircut, so he decides to turn up after the slimming club meeting. He's most put out to see Freda with Mr Booth - who appears to be squeezing her arm. Nigel presumes he's congratulating her but Bert's not reassured. He's convinced that Neville Booth is Freda's fancy man.
