Our Great Yorkshire Life

Return of the programme following people living around Yorkshire, beginning with Emmerdale's Dean Andrews showing off the region's wonders to co-star and Lancastrian Liam Fox, kicking things off with a trip to Malham in the Dales. The Yorkshire Vet star Peter Wright and his wife Lin have a day out in Harrogate, where they experience the famous Turkish baths for the first time, and go behind the scenes at RHS Garden Harlow Carr.

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 a

Dean Andrews takes Emmerdale co-star pal Liam Fox to the River Don, once devastated by industrial pollution but now thriving after half a century of hard work by campaigners. In Pickering, North Yorkshire, ex-RSPCA officer Tink Rush opens the doors of her Yorkshire Teddy Rescue where, for the past five years, she's taken in old, abandoned teddies and lovingly restored them and then found them new homes.

This week, Rob and Dave Nicholson visit the oldest sweet shop in the world on a quest to find out more about a famous Yorkshire confectionery — Yorkshire Mixture, a mix of traditional boiled sweets that's been popular for almost 200 years. The boys then journey to South Yorkshire and get to make their very own pear drops — which are a part of Yorkshire Mixture and a favourite of their dad Roger — before enjoying a taste test of their sweets back home with dad. At Eden Camp, a Second World War military museum on the outskirts of Malton, north Yorkshire, 24-year-old Summer O'Brien is in the final stages of completing a special exhibition that reveals the remarkable role the camp played in post-war Yorkshire. Eden Camp once held German, Romanian and Polish prisoners of war, many of whom, after the war, stayed on and became much loved members of the community. On the outskirts of York, we meet architect Stephen Potts who helped lead the team that restored the stunning Holgate Windmill, mak

Yorkshire Vet Julian Norton goes searching for hidden edible treasures in woodlands only six miles from Leeds city centre, when he tries his hand at wild food foraging with specialist Craig Worrall.

Yorkshire Vet Peter Wright is enjoying semiretirement and is now dedicating time to his passions and interests beyond veterinary work. The Donkey Sanctuary, for which he is an ambassador, is one of those passions. Today, he's visiting a holding base in east Yorkshire where two rescued donkeys, Donald and Alf, are hopefully about to be rehomed — as long as they can pass Peter's health check. In Southowram, Halifax, award-winning young farmer Stephen is hoping his Charolais ram is fit for purpose so that his fields can be filled with lambs come springtime. But before the new ram can be introduced to his flock, Stephen needs to deploy a teaser tup — a vasectomized ram — that will hopefully get his ewes in the mood and help things run more efficiently once the real McCoy arrives on the scene. In Ingleton in the Yorkshire Dales, Adam and Moira are up against it as they adapt to living off grid in one of the most remote areas in the county. They're now fulfilling a dream of leaving the rat r
