At the Young Farmers show, Ruth's really proud when Pip gets second place in the stock judging competition. But Pip doesn't get through to the dance-off round of the disco competition, and to Pip's dismay Jonathan can't take his eyes of the winner - Izzy. Ruth assures her that obviously Jonathan's got a soft spot for Pip.

Alan's expecting quite a crowd at tonight's bird watchers' event but assures Usha that she doesn't need to help out. Usha refuses to hide away because of malicious gossip and poison pen letters. What bothers Usha most about Shula is that she threw back something Alan had told her in confidence. Alan's sure Shula already regrets letting herself down.

Lynda's busy organising everyone, especially Usha and Alan. She wonders whether anyone from the press will come. But realising how inappropriate this would be for Usha and Alan, she quickly changes the subject. David arrives with their display boards and Lynda notices Usha looking startled when the door opens. Expressing concern over recent events, Lynda is taken aback at Usha's announcement that Shula was the 'unnamed member of the pastoral team'. Usha just wishes more people realised how destructive Shula can be.
