Will calm be restored at Brookfield? And there鈥檚 a proud moment for Jill.

Ruth and David are grateful to Alistair for saving their cow and calf last night. Alistair says he had the help of two very capable farmers 鈥� Pip and Josh.
Ben tells Beth he鈥檚 really happy with his nursing course; it鈥檚 down to her that he didn鈥檛 give it up after Bert died. Beth says that Josh thought he was great with their parents after the accident. She thinks there鈥檚 something about Ben that makes people feel better.
Jill鈥檚 frosty with Leonard, but is quietly chuffed when Leonard tells her that Iris isn鈥檛 really his cup of tea; if there鈥檚 any woman he wants to look at plants with, it鈥檚 Jill. Leonard buys everyone a take-away for dinner 鈥� after the trauma of this week, he wants to spoil everyone.
Ruth moots a return to work next week - she'll take it slowly, but Jill says no she won't and Leonard reckons Pip and Josh are more than capable of keeping the farm ticking over. Jill agrees that Brookfield is in safe hands 鈥� it鈥檚 another generation to step up when the time comes.
Pip and Josh mutually appreciate each other鈥檚 lives. When Josh asks what she really wants, Pip says she鈥檇 like to meet someone, but neither of them know whether they鈥檇 like to take over Brookfield. Josh thinks anything could happen, but whatever it is, they鈥檒l do alright. Pip agrees they鈥檇 smash it.
