Pat may have found the solution, and Mia makes the effort.

Eddie enthuses to Mia about the ferret themed fete. Mia points out some shortcomings she’s heard about. Eddie declares these are all blips – inevitable when working within a budget. He spots Lynda approaching and tries to hide, but she spots him. Lynda challenges him about the fete, suggesting it’s chaos. Defeated, Eddie admits it’s all got away from him. He can’t see a solution. Lynda suggests they join forces. With Eddie’s ideas and her organisational skills, all will be well.

Chelsea bumps into Stella on her way to the rewilding site. They’re joined by Paul, who wonders about Weaver doing a photo shoot for a feature on rescue dogs – he’d be perfect. Chelsea thinks Stella should jump at it. After some hesitation Stella agrees, however Weaver isn’t the perfect model. 

Mia and Chelsea work together on the labels for the rewilding stall. They talk about Brad, both noting aspects of his personality. Chelsea’s surprised Mia’s observed so much, feeling that as Brad’s sister, she herself should know him best. She doesn’t want him messed about. Mia assures her she won’t – she doesn’t want Brad hurt or laughed at either. The pair agree they’re on the same page.

Helen wants to rebrand Sterling Gold to Grey Gables Gold for Adil. Pat thinks it’s selling out, but Helen’s determined to do anything to keep the cheese business afloat. Pat suggests a compromise, which Helen agrees to think about. If she can win back the cheese agreement with Adil, everything else will fall into place.
