Episode 2

Cannon Hall's Rob and Dave Nicholson have a day off from the family farm, so they travel to the southern Pennines, where a passion project is bearing fruit. Rob and Dave have become beekeepers and their bees are on a working holiday. The bees are hopefully making a unique honey from the heather pollen that surrounds them at their secret Pennines location. And if all goes to plan, the lads will bring the honey-filled hives back to Barnsley. In Malton in north Yorkshire, Tom NaylorLeyland faces up to his biggest challenge of the year, as he races to organise a unique event designed to make the market town the ‘Food Capital of Yorkshire'. There are only days to go before the Marathon du Malton gets underway. It's a 10K gastronomical fun run where participants — including Tom — get to eat and drink local delicacies along the route. But when injury befalls Tom and a thunderstorm is forecast, things begin to look gloomy. In Calderdale in west Yorkshire, 25-year-old farmer Stephen Short has an important day ahead of him. His heifers have been running with a new bull all summer and he's praying they are now in calf. Vet Sally can confirm he should expect to hear the pitter-patter of tiny hooves come calving season. And Stephen has a treat in store for his cows. He has brought in hoof-care specialists Robert and Diane, whose special machine gives each cow a lift so they can enjoy a special cow pedicure! And in Wensleydale in north Yorkshire, proud Yorkshire artist Andrea Hunter has set up a workshop and has an eager class of students trying to learn her unique style and methods. Andrea doesn't use oils, watercolours or charcoal. Her preferred medium is felt, made from local wool. And her spectacular finished pieces require painstaking patience and a fair amount of physical effort!
