Jim is caught in the middle, and Adam finds himself ousted.

Jazzer gives Rex the lowdown on managing the pigs, and Rex is a bit perturbed to find out that Jazzer knows about Neil taking a backseat. Jazzer also gives Jim some headphones for his keyboard practice, so Jazzer can watch TV in peace.

Alistair gets Shula to talk about their problems, but she makes it clear there's nothing they can work on to fix things. Jim walks in on Shula and Alistair arguing and Shula tells him they've broken up. Alistair then tells Jim it's only temporary - and Jim mustn't tell anyone. 

Rex looks forward to Sport Relief being over, and Toby is preparing to accompany Pip to her 20 week scan. Rex is happy to report that David has given him and Toby an extension on the Hollowtree tenancy now that they'll be working with pigs. Toby's pleased that Rex has come round to the idea but Rex explains that what sealed it was the offer of a job from his father. Rex does not want his dad controlling his life. Rex now just needs to speak to Neil. 

Adam's keen to share thoughts for the first meeting of the farmers' soil support group. However, Michael Park un-invites Adam to be on the committee, due to the potential bad publicity from his connection to Home Farm and the Low Mead contamination. He could still be an ordinary member in future, says Michael. But Adam tells Michael to stuff his offer.
