Matt Baker and Helen Skelton brave the rain in Cumbria to visit the World Sheepdog Trials. Matt discovers the beautiful Lowther Estate, where the trials are held, before taking on Helen in a sheepdog challenge. While she is in Cumbria, Helen also gets a chance to find out about the difficult and dangerous life of the lead miner, and discovers how a military spy plane has been adapted to help hill farmers.

John Craven investigates controversial proposals to change planning regulations; could they threaten the future of the countryside, or revitalise rural communities? And it is a nervous time for Adam on his farm when his cattle, including his precious White Parks, are tested for TB.
