He offers to stay at a local inn that he and Helen enjoy and do the testing instead of going on his honeymoon.

Herriot manages to fit his wedding in between tests, and the ceremony is simple. As Herriot and Helen drive away, they pass Skedale House. Helen points out that there is a new shingle outside the door. Dr. Farnon has made Herriot a full partner in the practice. They continue to the inn and enjoy a quiet dinner. The next day is spent testing cows and enjoying their new life...
