Episode 1

In the Dales, John and William Dawson gather their sheep from the slopes of one of Yorkshire's spectacular Three Peaks for a cooling summer shearing. In the Lake District, a father and daughter - members of a legendary Cumbrian climbing family - tackle a lofty Cumbrian crag. On Windermere, boat builder Hamish Paterson puts an Edwardian steam vessel through its paces. And in south Lakeland, a massive one-and-a-half-ton shorthorn bull kicks off during preparations for the biggest agricultural show of his year: the National Championships.
