Roy has romance on his mind and Kate puts her foot in it

Roy’s friend Leyla is heading for an overnight at the rewilding campsite. Roy hasn’t told her his daughter’s the manager – he thought it a bit soon for ‘meet the family’. Phoebe promises to steer clear for the day. Roy and Leyla enjoy being close to nature, and when the rain starts they cosy up in her tent. Just as they get closer they’re interrupted by an errant Longhorn cow.
Meanwhile Kate visits busy Phoebe at Willow Farm, distracting her with village chat. Kate wonders who the celeb is that Lynda’s lined up for the fete. She speculates Roy might know; she’ll ask him. Phoebe warns her off. Her dad’s busy today. Kate soon cottons on that Roy’s with a woman. Phoebe persuades her not to pursue it, and says she’s staying away too – she just has to visit the site office briefly.
Leyla tracks Phoebe down at the office and alerts her that her tent’s been trampled by escaped Longhorns. Helpful Rex has wrangled them, but her kit’s ruined. Phoebe’s apologising when dishevelled Roy appears and she hoots with laughter. Leyla’s appalled at this disrespectful behaviour, even when she finds out Phoebe’s Roy’s daughter. Kate arrives and makes matters worse. Offers of a complimentary massage and calming treatments don’t wash with Leyla. And when she discovers Kate’s Phoebe’s mum, it’s the final straw. She’s going home. Kate comforts dejected Roy. Perhaps he should change tack and meet people just for fun.
