David discusses the anaerobic digester business with Adam, who tells him that Brian's suggested calling it 'Ambridge Heat and Power'. David reiterates that he and Ruth are very committed to the project, but David feels that Tony might like to be a part of it too. David agrees to talk to Tony over the next couple of days. Ruth picks up Phil and Jill from the airport, back from their anniversary trip. They've had a marvellous time but they're glad to be home. When Jill asks why Shula couldn't come to pick them up as expected, Ruth explains that as Jim had a fall last night she had to take him to hospital. Jill and Phil chat excitedly about their trip while Ruth gets them up to speed with news from Ambridge. Pip rehearses her speech for the Young Farmers public speaking competition. She's going to talk about the damage done to the skylarks' nesting sites because she's so angry with Matt for ploughing up the set-aside. Later Phil and Jill go to Brookfield for supper, having stopped off at Glebe Cottage en route to put their feet up. Jill wonders why there are two enormous turkeys in her freezer...
