This Farming Life
In Dumfries and Galloway, Nick and his wife, Holly, prepare to take over the family-run farm from his, dad Derek, who plans to retire later in the year. Nick wants to change how his father has been farming for over 30 years. He is experimenting with a breed of low-maintenance sheep that he believes are the future, but Derek is yet to be convinced. It's a critical year for Andy and Jo in Fife, who have taken out a £2-million loan to get into arable farming. Crops now account for 60 per cent of their income, but record-breaking rain could have a catastrophic impact on their wheat fields. They must wait for the frost to thaw to reveal the extent of the damage. The remote island Papa Westray is home to the Baker family, who moved there six years ago. New to farming, they rely on support from the community. In return they do Friday night fish and chip takeaways, but the island’s dinner hangs in the balance as winter weather takes over.

Paramedics on Scene
In this episode, we are with the West Special Operations Response Team at an equestrian centre. A young woman has been kicked by a horse, and the team must help get her to an ambulance over tricky terrain. Other paramedics in their team attend a woman threatening to jump off a bridge in Glasgow. The shallow water has the potential of causing a serious injury if she goes ahead with the jump. Meanwhile, ambulance crews in Livingston are called to a man struggling to breathe, and another who has fallen and injured his face. A man in Dunfermline has suddenly lost sight in one eye, and an ambulance crew must assess him to make sure he gets the right care and the cause is discovered. In the ambulance control centre in Inverness, a call handler strives to obtain as much accurate information as she can from a caller, so that she can provide the right help for a woman having a seizure outside a pub. Meanwhile, another call handler does everything she can to help a person who has found a family member unresponsive and not breathing, guiding them through CPR until a paramedic arrives.
Murder Case
In 1984, 58-year-old Mary McLaughlin was found dead in her home in Glasgow. She had been strangled with the tie of her dressing gown. Mary was last seen walking home from the pub at night, with an unknown man following her. Despite the best efforts of the investigating officers, they couldn’t identity the unknown man and the trail would run cold for decades. In 2014, advances in DNA profiling gives new hope to cold cases. Police Scotland detectives and forensic scientists reinvestigate the case, sampling items preserved from the original crime scene to try and find Mary’s killer. A DNA hit leads to a potential suspect, but even more questions arise when this person appears to have an ironclad alibi. The case won’t be solved by forensic science alone, and detectives need to go back to basics and hunt in the archives for clues to figure out who killed Mary. In this documentary, we hear from both the original 1984 investigators as well as contemporary Police Scotland detectives and forensics team who cracked the case.

Our Lives
This Our Lives documentary tells the story of Boots and Beards, a Scots Asian-run hillwalking group helping people from ethnic minority backgrounds explore the great outdoors. We join the group as it gathers once again after a year in lockdown and prepares to celebrate its landmark 100th walk. We meet the group’s founders, Naveed Baksh and Kashif Butt, whose close friendship has been a driving force behind the success of the group. Their fortnightly hillwalks began as a way to spend more time with close friends and family, but have grown into a community event that has transformed lives. Naveed also travels to Fort William, the small Highland town where his parents first settled when coming to the UK. There, he’s joined by Kashif for a walk up Ben Nevis, the highest mountain in the country and the pair’s greatest hillwalking challenge to date.

Giving It Stick
Documentary showcasing the game of shinty and the Highland communities that play it. Shinty’s ancient origins date as far back as the 5th century, when it was believed to be the traditional battle game of the Highlands clans. By the 18th century, it had become Scotland’s most popular game and can lay claim to giving birth to golf, ice hockey, and even the development of football, which borrowed set positions such as defender, midfielder and forward from the game. Today, however, shinty is underfunded and largely ignored outside the Highlands, but it remains strong in the small communities where it began centuries ago. Shinty's biggest prize is the Camanachd Cup, a trophy that every shinty player and community dreams of bringing home. Being such a physical game, and with the threat of injuries constantly looming, it's no surprise that the game fell out of fashion. Giving It Stick follows the rival teams of Newtonmore and Kingussie through the highs and lows of the 2022 season, and celebrates the people keeping shinty alive in the Highlands.
