Pip faces some difficult decisions, and opportunity knocks for George.

After conducting pregnancy tests on the Brookfield cows Alistair chats to David about the poisonous atmosphere at Home Farm, wondering if David might be able to soften Brian鈥檚 hardline stance. When David mentions trade stand bookings for the Borchester Show are right down Alistair says a client complained about the payment system on the showground last year. David says he鈥檒l investigate, before Alistair chases up numbers for the minibus trip to the Women鈥檚 T20 World Cup on Friday.
Amber鈥檚 pleased by the uptick in social media engagement for the Borchester Show since she took over strategy from George. The money they earn will help cover the cost of all the baby gear they need. David calls, asking Amber to use her contacts at Farm Supplies to find out why trade stand bookings are down, and to target local businesses with positive messaging. Later, Amber and George are able to confirm the slow wi-fi led to payment difficulties last year, putting businesses off booking again. David vows to try and fix it.
Stella enthuses about wedding preparations to distracted Pip, who鈥檚 waiting for the call from a genetic counsellor. After several false alarms Pip finally speaks to the counsellor, then later tells Stella about the issues they covered, including potential risks to having children in future. Stella suggests focusing on the next step and Pip says she鈥檚 agreed to take the private BRCA gene variant test. It鈥檚 hard, but once Pip鈥檚 done the test, they鈥檒l know for sure without having to wait for Ruth鈥檚 NHS referral, which she hasn鈥檛 even asked for yet.
