Busy and exhausted from lambing, James and Helen can't get any time together. James thinks he's found a solution as he's hired a new trainee vet, Richard Carmody, but things don't quite work out as he expects.

Mrs Pumphrey also has a new canine member of her household, Cedric, who has an antisocial problem that she needs addressed urgently. Tensions come to a head at Mrs Pumphrey's Community Tea Party, and Mrs Hall takes a big step forward in her relationship with Gerald.

Beloved horse, Teasel, needs expert help from the Skeldale House vets and Helen realises that life happens while you're busy making plans.
