Tom loses his rag, and Brian is after Adam's approval.
At 5am Tom catches Johnny entering the Borchester Food and Drink Awards. Tom is angry that Johnny hasn't listened to him, Johnny protests but Tom won't have it. Over their hotel breakfast, Tony checks the arrangements for visiting Helen and Peggy reminds Tony that she had all three of her children at home with only a nurse for company. Tony is worried Helen will get pre-eclampsia again. Peggy says they must remain optimistic.
Brian and Adam chat while they wait for David. The three of them are going to Lincolnshire to visit a farm that's been no-till for nearly a decade. Adam gets a text from Alistair - he can't commit every weekend to cricket but Alistair won't give up. Meanwhile, Brian thinks the elves in the Millennium Wood are getting out of hand. On their way back, Brian seeks Adam's approval of his plans to treat Jennifer for their 40th wedding anniversary. When Adam hears the words "...exotic, quite restful and extremely expensive", he replies "I'm sure she'll love it".
Tom apologises to Johnny. He's realised Johnny was entering Helen's cheese in the Borchester Food and Drink Awards. Tom completed the application and submitted it. Kirsty tells Tom she had called a women's helpline about Helen and she also gave Helen the helpline number and then a phone. Tom says he'll pass it on to Anna.
Tony and Peggy are both tired after visiting Helen. Peggy says as long as she's alive she'll do anything to help Tony and his family. She suggests they get a glass of whisky for Tony at the hotel.
