Chris is growing increasingly annoyed with Jack for being too easy with Wilf – his tenant farmer. With his patience running out, Chris sends Jack back to the farm with the threat of eviction if Wilf doesn’t pay up. But Jack is stunned by the poverty that greets him, and it soon becomes apparent that Wilf is struggling to keep his head above water. He has been struck by the foot and mouth epidemic, and his wife has left him. It comes as some surprise to Chris, then, when Jack returns with a wad of cash from Wilf – but all is not as it seems.
