Bought from Tescos yesterday for £2. It doesn't look too healthy. Not sure what to do with it.

Gerbera Daisy plants flower best when it is growing in a small container and is slightly pot bound, they like full sunlight to ensure maximum flower production.
Keep slightly moist at all times, especially when in bloom, but don't let the pot sit in water. Feed every 2 weeks with a weak liquid and dead head to promote further flowering.
If it were me I would move it to sunlight and feed/water it, and cut off that big flower and I am sure it will recover.

Thanks for the tip. I'll try that tomorrow.
