Debating David is down in the dumps. And no touching, please, we're British.

David joins Brian and Jennifer for lunch but struggles with his one good arm. Brian's looking forward to Lilian moving out, but Jennifer reminds him Lilian will be back with them at Christmas time - she can't be left on her own at the Dower House. Meanwhile, Kate has driven Phoebe to Oxford for her interviews. David and Brian discuss Charlie having to leave Berrow Farm and start a job up North. David really misses Ruth, as Jennifer points out their anniversary is coming up. David and Brian also debate the dairy industry and subsidies - Brian invites David to join him at a conference.

At the touch-rugby games, organised by the Fairbrothers, there's a sense of brotherly rivalry over Pip. Rex is injured by a fierce tackle from Toby and Pip goes with Rex to hospital. Rex mentions Toby trying to impress her and starts to tentatively, and all too subtly perhaps, tell Pip he likes her himself. Pip doesn't seem to hear him properly, pointing out that the hospital staff are calling Rex back in.
