Roy has had enough, and Pip will not be pinned down.

Rex tells Pip about that the hens that Toby and Josh transferred from Willow Farm so that Upper Class Eggs can fulfil the Morgan and Minster order. Meanwhile, Toby is working on his promotional film for pastured eggs but Rex thinks they'd better off getting on the phone to potential customers. Later, Toby asks Rex for his input into the film. Rex asks if it's really about selling the eggs or impressing Pip Archer. Toby says Pip is strictly Rex's territory. 

Roy brings Phoebe a cup of tea. She's feeling a lot more relaxed now she's not at Home Farm and she can really focus on her revision. Kate calls Phoebe and asks her to help tidy up the house before Jennifer and Brian get back. Phoebe shouts at her mum and hangs up. Roy goes to Home Farm and tells Kate to leave Phoebe alone until after her exams, in return he will help her tidy up. Roy also helps Kate with a catering contact. She is grateful and invites him to her business launch.

After being invited by Pip earlier in the day, Rex goes to Chris Carter's birthday party. Toby, to Rex's surprise and dismay, also turns up. After some time, Pip catches Rex as he's about to leave the party, she calls Toby over to help her persuade Rex to stay. Toby says Rex prefers to be with the hens than with people. Pip says she's amazed Neil let Josh and Toby take the hens from Willow Farm. Toby struggles to confirm they had permission.

Intelligent speech, the most insightful journalism, the wittiest comedy, the most fascinating features and the most compelling drama and readings anywhere in UK radio.
