Pip's expecting Matthew this evening but before that she's agreed to help Toby make a film about the pastured hens. Before Pip arrives, Toby flies the drone over Bert as he gardens at The Bungalow. Bert can't believe his bald patch has got so big when Toby plays back the footage.
After filming with Pip, Toby mentions he's going to film a big poultry unit nearby, without permission of the farmer. Pip says if that's his game she doesn't want her face to be in the film. When Pip gets back to Brookfield she tells Ruth that Matthew isn't coming to visit after all. In fact, he's not coming ever again, adds Pip. Matthew has told her he wants to end their relationship.
Anna visits Helen in the mother and baby unit. Helen laughs at the fact that Ursula never considered a prison birth when she was pushing Helen to have the baby at home. Anna tries to ask about Rob and Ursula but Helen doesn't say much. Helen talks about what she's seen at the unit so far. Anna asks Helen about Kirsty giving her a helpline number. Helen is shocked Anna knows this. Helen tells Anna Rob didn't like Kirsty and that she kept in touch with her without letting him know. Anna continues to question Helen about Rob and the helpline but Helen says she can't talk about it - her waters have broken. Show less
