Charlie's interviewing Mike for a job at Berrow Farm, as Mike reminds Charlie that he started out as a dairy manager - which reminds Mike of the terrible TB outbreak which scuppered the enterprise. Charlie points out that Berrow is a much bigger operation, but mike talks confidently about adjusting to different systems over the years - pointing out that he's flexible to do whatever shifts Charlie has to offer. Charlie's about to give mike a tour of the site when he's interrupted - there's something urgent Charlie needs to deal with.
