Ellie Harrison and Matt Baker are in West Yorkshire where Ellie joins one of Britain's best poets, Simon Armitage, on a yomp across the snowy moors. She's following the Stanza Stones trail - a series of rocks with verses written by Simon carved upon them. Matt visits a farm run by volunteers where they are farming with wildlife in mind. Joe Crowley tells the tale of the Cragg Vale Coiners, an outlaw band responsible for one of the biggest counterfeiting crimes in history. Adam visits a farm where they are using French percheron heavy horses to work the land. Plus, the first of the Food and Farming Awards packages. Tom Heap visits a state-of-the-art laboratory at Pirbright that will soon become our first line of defence against a host of exotic diseases that target farm animals, horses - and even humans.
