==Memorable dialogue==
Annie Sugden: "You seem to think there are no rewards to this job. It's not all slog."
Sarah Connolly: "No?"
Annie Sugden: "No! Oh, you don't have to tell me about the cold and the mess and the grind... getting out of a warm bed at five o'clock on a winter's morning... but the satisfaction of rearing healthy animals, to see them with their young ones in the spring, to produce a good crop against all odds and the sheer joy of having faced and defeated another winter."
