Series 7: 7. Island Farming on the Edge
Nick and Derek get some bad news, putting plans for taking over the family farm into sharp focus in Dumfries and Galloway. They are losing 300 acres of leased grazing land to forestry, and with concerns over when dad Derek might retire, Nick sets out a timeline for his succession.\n\nOn Papa Westray, new farmers Paul and Mel are in the midst of their first big lambing season. With the addition of new baby Oak, it’s a family affair. Ten-year-old Jakey does the morning rounds, checking for new lambs, and spots a ewe in trouble - Paul has to call on his farming neighbours for help.\n\nAt Hillhead Farm near Glasgow, Ben and Matt Imrie are tackling the wedding and events site infrastructure. The race is on to make it a marketable venue ahead of the first event of the season in six weeks' time. Their dad, John, has another pre-op for his hip replacement, and he and Antoinette hope he receives the news he is desperately waiting for.
