Description:

Warnings that animal welfare is at risk on some Scottish Islands because of widespread disruption to ferry services.

Ripples from conflict in the Middle East are felt in UK ports; the fishing industry is asking the Government for help with fuel costs.

Every spring in a quiet corner of England on the Herefordshire Gloucestershire border carpets of wild daffodils can still be seen in the fields and woodlands, thanks to carefully managed farming and forestry practices.

And as it's lambing time, so we’re learning the ropes with a student vet.

Presented by Caz Graham and produced by Beatrice Fenton.
