0:00:03 > 0:00:06Isolated in the middle of the South Atlantic Ocean,
0:00:06 > 0:00:088,000 miles from the UK,
0:00:08 > 0:00:11the Falkland Islands is a British overseas territory,
0:00:11 > 0:00:14and the 2,500-strong population
0:00:14 > 0:00:16are keen to keep it that way.
0:00:19 > 0:00:22During his time here, the Anglican rector of the Falklands,
0:00:22 > 0:00:26the Reverend Richard Hines, has visited nearly every corner
0:00:26 > 0:00:28of his 6,000 square mile parish,
0:00:28 > 0:00:31but now he's coming up for retirement
0:00:31 > 0:00:35and these are his last precious months here on the islands.
0:00:36 > 0:00:38I've seen the Andes mountains
0:00:38 > 0:00:40and I've seen the Rocky Mountains,
0:00:40 > 0:00:42and so on.
0:00:42 > 0:00:44But the Falkland Islands, easily,
0:00:44 > 0:00:46is alongside them in terms of beauty.
0:00:48 > 0:00:50It's June in the southern hemisphere
0:00:50 > 0:00:51and winter is officially here.
0:00:53 > 0:00:56But the bitter cold doesn't stop the Scouts commemorating
0:00:56 > 0:00:58the Battle of Mount Tumbledown.
0:00:59 > 0:01:01..and as dawn was breaking,
0:01:01 > 0:01:04on the morning of 14th of June,
0:01:04 > 0:01:06the Scots Guards managed to get to the top end there
0:01:06 > 0:01:09where we can just see the top of the cross.
0:01:11 > 0:01:13And on a farm outside Stanley,
0:01:13 > 0:01:15Lisa is getting the pints in
0:01:15 > 0:01:18and preserving a bit of Falklands heritage.
0:01:20 > 0:01:21It's always been the way of life here.
0:01:21 > 0:01:24There was no other way around things.
0:01:24 > 0:01:26It was like everybody milked cows years ago
0:01:26 > 0:01:28because there was no other milk.
0:02:06 > 0:02:09Government House in Stanley
0:02:09 > 0:02:12has been the home of the governors of the Falkland Islands since 1845.
0:02:12 > 0:02:17Over the years, it's played host to many important guests,
0:02:17 > 0:02:20including the famous polar explorer Sir Ernest Shackleton,
0:02:20 > 0:02:23who described his stay there as being far colder
0:02:23 > 0:02:25than any time he'd spent on the ice.
0:02:28 > 0:02:31Luckily, central heating has warmed things up a bit,
0:02:31 > 0:02:34and the house is now a much more welcoming place.
0:02:35 > 0:02:39The new Governor, Colin Roberts, is the 35th to hold the post.
0:02:39 > 0:02:43For the next four years, in the absence of the Queen,
0:02:43 > 0:02:45he'll be the islands' de facto head of state.
0:02:45 > 0:02:48But having only recently arrived,
0:02:48 > 0:02:51his first job is to get on with the unpacking.
0:02:53 > 0:02:56Our son's toys, or at least that's what it says on the box -
0:02:56 > 0:03:00"Best Magic Tricks."
0:03:00 > 0:03:03Colin has previously been posted to Japan and Lithuania,
0:03:03 > 0:03:05where he was Ambassador.
0:03:05 > 0:03:07If you're a diplomat, basically,
0:03:07 > 0:03:09you will spend most of your life
0:03:09 > 0:03:12in a big city, because most diplomatic missions inevitably
0:03:12 > 0:03:15are in the capital, or in a big regional city.
0:03:15 > 0:03:19This is an opportunity to do a job which is really interesting -
0:03:19 > 0:03:23er, yes, we're in a capital here in Stanley -
0:03:23 > 0:03:26but this is by the sea, in the hills...
0:03:26 > 0:03:29You know, five minutes from the beach.
0:03:29 > 0:03:33And thinking, as inevitably we did do, before we came here,
0:03:33 > 0:03:36about our children and our dog,
0:03:36 > 0:03:39that's an important part of the decision, where...
0:03:39 > 0:03:42You know, it's a wonderful place to come and live.
0:03:44 > 0:03:47Colin's wife Camilla is also a diplomat,
0:03:47 > 0:03:49but she's been on unpaid leave
0:03:49 > 0:03:51since their two sons were born.
0:03:51 > 0:03:53The boys are now 12 and 10,
0:03:53 > 0:03:56and are at boarding school in the UK,
0:03:56 > 0:03:59but will be coming out to join their parents for holidays.
0:04:01 > 0:04:05I've got to sort these for the different rooms,
0:04:05 > 0:04:09because people usually like to see a few private photographs
0:04:09 > 0:04:11up in the public areas,
0:04:11 > 0:04:14and then we want some private ones in our areas,
0:04:14 > 0:04:16so that it feels more like home,
0:04:16 > 0:04:18and more like our house.
0:04:18 > 0:04:21It's really just a question of working out
0:04:21 > 0:04:23what's suitable for where.
0:04:23 > 0:04:26There's quite a lot of the Queen already in the drawing room,
0:04:26 > 0:04:29so maybe they can go on there somewhere.
0:04:29 > 0:04:31I had nine boxes I'd sorted out this morning.
0:04:31 > 0:04:34I'm down to the spices and things I haven't yet sorted.
0:04:34 > 0:04:37Camilla has also packed some of their favourite foods
0:04:37 > 0:04:40that they wouldn't want to be without.
0:04:40 > 0:04:43Some of my jams and things, which I actually need to find a proper home.
0:04:43 > 0:04:44This is a real old-fashioned larder -
0:04:44 > 0:04:46you can feel the temperature drop as you come in.
0:04:48 > 0:04:50All my unpacking...which is lovely! It's so nice to see.
0:04:50 > 0:04:55We've got tinned peppers and some red cabbage, and some sauerkraut.
0:04:55 > 0:04:57But I've got lots and lots of stuff from the UK
0:04:57 > 0:05:00that's difficult to get here, or expensive.
0:05:03 > 0:05:07A big factor in making this official residence feel like a home
0:05:07 > 0:05:10will be the arrival of the family dog.
0:05:10 > 0:05:1318-month-old Bonnie, a Welsh Springer spaniel,
0:05:13 > 0:05:16is currently at sea on a military cargo ship
0:05:16 > 0:05:18travelling down from the UK.
0:05:20 > 0:05:22She's due to arrive in a couple of days' time.
0:05:22 > 0:05:25I'm not even sure what the best...
0:05:25 > 0:05:27And Stanley vet Steve Pointing
0:05:27 > 0:05:29will be there to greet her.
0:05:32 > 0:05:36What happens is that, although the dog's been treated
0:05:36 > 0:05:39against worms and fleas just prior to leaving the UK,
0:05:39 > 0:05:41we repeat that down here,
0:05:41 > 0:05:43because we don't have any fleas in the country.
0:05:43 > 0:05:46So we want to be absolutely certain we don't allow any fleas in.
0:05:46 > 0:05:50And the reason we insist on all the vaccinations you've had done
0:05:50 > 0:05:54is because we don't vaccinate any of the dogs that are born on the islands,
0:05:54 > 0:05:56because we don't have any of those diseases.
0:05:56 > 0:06:00So it's an added cost and expense that people here don't need to go through.
0:06:00 > 0:06:02But those dogs would be 100% susceptible
0:06:02 > 0:06:06to all the common dog diseases, if it was introduced.
0:06:06 > 0:06:09- It's a lovely place for a dog to be, here.- It is.
0:06:09 > 0:06:11- Fantastic place for a dog. - All those open spaces.
0:06:11 > 0:06:13- She'll have a wonderful time. - She will.
0:06:13 > 0:06:15And I advise you to, erm,
0:06:15 > 0:06:18read my article in the Penguin News today.
0:06:18 > 0:06:20- LAUGHING - I haven't got my copy yet but, yes.
0:06:20 > 0:06:23Right, well, the article on the front page is all about...
0:06:23 > 0:06:26- I can see the headline! - "If it's your dog, it's your mess."
0:06:26 > 0:06:28So I recommend that you read that, all right?
0:06:35 > 0:06:37Over at the deanery, the Reverend Richard
0:06:37 > 0:06:40is preparing to go on an expedition,
0:06:40 > 0:06:43and after seven years here in the South Atlantic,
0:06:43 > 0:06:46he's not going to get caught out by the weather.
0:06:46 > 0:06:50The basic equipment for going anywhere in the Falkland Islands,
0:06:50 > 0:06:52even in the summer,
0:06:52 > 0:06:56is merino wool and silk thermals, black -
0:06:56 > 0:06:59regulation order for clergy -
0:06:59 > 0:07:04woolly hat, muffler, de rigueur, at least one pair of gloves.
0:07:05 > 0:07:09He and his wife Jen are going to join a party of local Cub Scouts
0:07:09 > 0:07:13to climb Mount Tumbledown, four miles west of Stanley.
0:07:15 > 0:07:19There, that should tide us over. It gets very chilly up there.
0:07:19 > 0:07:22I was in the Cubs in Norfolk,
0:07:22 > 0:07:26and just at the time when I was due to become a Scout,
0:07:26 > 0:07:29I went away to boarding school in Norfolk,
0:07:29 > 0:07:31to a place called Wymondham College.
0:07:31 > 0:07:33So I never was actually a Scout.
0:07:38 > 0:07:40The man in charge of shepherding Richard, Jen,
0:07:40 > 0:07:44and a troop of Cub Scouts safely up the mountain is Tim Miller.
0:07:45 > 0:07:48Tim leads this annual expedition to commemorate
0:07:48 > 0:07:50the Battle of Mount Tumbledown,
0:07:50 > 0:07:54which saw some of the fiercest fighting of the whole Falklands War.
0:07:55 > 0:07:58Now get yourself belted up in there.
0:08:00 > 0:08:01Bye, Mummy.
0:08:01 > 0:08:02All right, have fun!
0:08:04 > 0:08:07This is nine-year-old Hugh's second time on the trip.
0:08:09 > 0:08:12Do you know how many Cubs are actually going, Tim?
0:08:12 > 0:08:14Erm, about 23, I think.
0:08:16 > 0:08:17We go up every 13th of June,
0:08:17 > 0:08:19which is the anniversary of the date
0:08:19 > 0:08:23of the battle with the Scots Guards, on the night of the 13th,
0:08:23 > 0:08:28and that was one of the last battles in the fight for Stanley.
0:08:29 > 0:08:33We think it's important that the younger generation today
0:08:33 > 0:08:35learn about what happened,
0:08:35 > 0:08:38then hopefully in 30 or 40 years' time
0:08:38 > 0:08:42they will be taking the future generation of youngsters
0:08:42 > 0:08:46up some of the hilltops and remembering,
0:08:46 > 0:08:50what happened in 1982 and, in particular,
0:08:50 > 0:08:54remembering the tragic human cost, of lives.
0:09:01 > 0:09:03- Peter?- Yeah.
0:09:03 > 0:09:04- Theo?- Yeah.
0:09:04 > 0:09:09At the foot of the mountain Tim and Hugh meet up with Tim's wife Jen,
0:09:09 > 0:09:10and the rest of the party.
0:09:10 > 0:09:12- Ryan?- Yes.
0:09:13 > 0:09:16Got the Falklands flag, the Scouts flag,
0:09:16 > 0:09:18there's the Scottish flag,
0:09:18 > 0:09:20or there's the Guards' flag.
0:09:20 > 0:09:22Can I carry the Guards' flag?
0:09:22 > 0:09:24Yep. Yep, you can have the Guards' flag.
0:09:24 > 0:09:27Yep, here we are. You can have the Falklands Island one. Here we are.
0:09:27 > 0:09:29In here...
0:09:29 > 0:09:31we have some...
0:09:31 > 0:09:33poppy crosses
0:09:33 > 0:09:35with the names of three
0:09:35 > 0:09:40of the Scots Guards who were killed up here in the battle,
0:09:40 > 0:09:4232 years ago tonight.
0:09:42 > 0:09:46And also the very cap of one of the soldiers
0:09:46 > 0:09:48who was killed up here,
0:09:48 > 0:09:50and the Scots Guards' veterans...
0:09:50 > 0:09:53They've asked could the Cubs please
0:09:53 > 0:09:57find a spot and bury this cap up on the top of the mountain for them.
0:09:58 > 0:10:00This kind of memorial and thanksgiving
0:10:00 > 0:10:02is part of daily life here,
0:10:02 > 0:10:05and as Rector, Richard has been involved
0:10:05 > 0:10:06in many such commemorations
0:10:06 > 0:10:08over the years.
0:10:08 > 0:10:10Here in the Falkland Islands,
0:10:10 > 0:10:13individual people's names are remembered,
0:10:13 > 0:10:16and little acts of remembrance by people who knew them,
0:10:16 > 0:10:19or on behalf of others, take place.
0:10:19 > 0:10:24It is a specific kind of way of remembering a unique life,
0:10:24 > 0:10:27as well as a general thanksgiving
0:10:27 > 0:10:29and a sense of...
0:10:29 > 0:10:31a sense of a debt that's owed.
0:10:39 > 0:10:41All the way to the top!
0:10:42 > 0:10:44Phew!
0:10:47 > 0:10:52At 250 metres, Mount Tumbledown rises up behind Stanley,
0:10:52 > 0:10:55dominating the surrounding area.
0:10:55 > 0:10:57On June 13th, 1982,
0:10:57 > 0:11:00it was occupied by highly trained Argentine marines
0:11:00 > 0:11:03who, from their strategic high point,
0:11:03 > 0:11:06could effectively prevent British troops
0:11:06 > 0:11:08from retaking the capital and ending the war.
0:11:10 > 0:11:13The task of attacking Tumbledown
0:11:13 > 0:11:15was given to the 2nd Scots Guards.
0:11:16 > 0:11:18They advanced under covering fire
0:11:18 > 0:11:22from three other regiments and two battleships down in the bay.
0:11:23 > 0:11:25- Hugh?- Yes?
0:11:25 > 0:11:27- You see this hole here?- Yeah.
0:11:27 > 0:11:29- Do you know what made that? - What, a bomb?
0:11:29 > 0:11:30- Well, a sort of a bomb.- Yeah.
0:11:30 > 0:11:35It would have been a gun - a shell - fired from one of the British ships.
0:11:35 > 0:11:38One of the Royal Navy ships helping the Scots Guards.
0:11:38 > 0:11:41While they were firing all their big guns,
0:11:41 > 0:11:44you see the Argentines would be, very sensibly,
0:11:44 > 0:11:46would be in their shelters with their heads down for protection,
0:11:46 > 0:11:50so that would enable Scots Guards to get closer and closer.
0:11:50 > 0:11:53We're just walking and it's hard, they've got to run and everything.
0:11:53 > 0:11:56They were having to run AND carry their rifle, their guns
0:11:56 > 0:11:59and their ammunition, and fight a battle on the way up.
0:12:04 > 0:12:05Quite a lovely afternoon.
0:12:05 > 0:12:07I wasn't sure what to expect.
0:12:07 > 0:12:08Tim and Jen said,
0:12:08 > 0:12:11"Come as our guests, you don't have to do anything."
0:12:11 > 0:12:13And I liked the idea of that!
0:12:16 > 0:12:19Everything is going well. The weather is clearing up nicely,
0:12:19 > 0:12:23it's on our side, and nobody seems to be flagging too far behind,
0:12:23 > 0:12:26so I think all's going well.
0:12:26 > 0:12:29Hugh's bringing up the tail end.
0:12:29 > 0:12:31The regimental flag is up the rear!
0:12:31 > 0:12:33HE LAUGHS
0:12:43 > 0:12:46Most farms on the Falklands keep a few cattle.
0:12:46 > 0:12:50But the cost of buying in special feed to supplement the poor grazing here
0:12:50 > 0:12:53means that numbers are always pretty small,
0:12:53 > 0:12:55and they are almost all beef cattle.
0:12:57 > 0:13:00But seven miles outside Stanley,
0:13:00 > 0:13:05Murrell Farm, belonging to Lisa Lowe, is one of the exceptions.
0:13:05 > 0:13:06Willow? Where are you?
0:13:06 > 0:13:09LONG LOUD MOO
0:13:09 > 0:13:11Come on.
0:13:11 > 0:13:13Amongst her small herd of Ayrshire crosses,
0:13:13 > 0:13:17Lisa keeps a few much-loved dairy cows.
0:13:20 > 0:13:22I think I started milking cows when I was...
0:13:22 > 0:13:25Probably, my earliest memories was when I was about five years old,
0:13:25 > 0:13:27with my sisters.
0:13:28 > 0:13:30It's always been a way of life here.
0:13:30 > 0:13:32There was no other way round things.
0:13:32 > 0:13:36Everybody milked cows years ago because there was no other milk.
0:13:37 > 0:13:40Well, there was condensed milk
0:13:40 > 0:13:42and there was the Ideal milk...
0:13:43 > 0:13:46..and some horrible powdered milk,
0:13:46 > 0:13:50but then again people didn't have the money to buy it either in those days.
0:13:52 > 0:13:55There's very few people nowadays that milk cows,
0:13:55 > 0:13:57and even out round the camp,
0:13:57 > 0:13:59everybody has packet milk, UHT, really.
0:14:03 > 0:14:05That's you finished, Faggy.
0:14:07 > 0:14:08Out you go.
0:14:10 > 0:14:13Moll, where are you?
0:14:13 > 0:14:14Come on. Come, Moll.
0:14:21 > 0:14:24Outside of Stanley, you've got to be, basically,
0:14:24 > 0:14:26a jack-of-all-trades, really
0:14:26 > 0:14:27because, you know,
0:14:27 > 0:14:29you never know when your electricity's
0:14:29 > 0:14:30going to go up the creek,
0:14:30 > 0:14:33or - this time of the year - your water freezes.
0:14:33 > 0:14:35And you can't just call a plumber
0:14:35 > 0:14:37or an electrician all the time.
0:14:38 > 0:14:42Island people have to be hardy, don't they, really? (Stop it...)
0:14:49 > 0:14:53Lisa's parents bought Murrell Farm in 1980.
0:14:53 > 0:14:56Two years later, war came to the islands
0:14:56 > 0:14:59and took a heavy toll on Falklands farmers,
0:14:59 > 0:15:02many of whom lost most of their animals.
0:15:02 > 0:15:05When they heard about this back in the UK,
0:15:05 > 0:15:09British farmers responded, and in 1983, a ship was sent south
0:15:09 > 0:15:12with a very special cargo on board.
0:15:14 > 0:15:16Ah, yes...! It's one of these bits.
0:15:19 > 0:15:21I don't want to tear it.
0:15:21 > 0:15:23"Operation Noah's Ark."
0:15:23 > 0:15:25A lot of people round England donated animals
0:15:25 > 0:15:28down to the Falklands after the conflict
0:15:28 > 0:15:31to replace a lot of the animals that were lost.
0:15:31 > 0:15:35Horses and cattle were either blown up with mines
0:15:35 > 0:15:38or shot off by the Argentines to eat.
0:15:38 > 0:15:41I would say all the cattle, here on the farm now,
0:15:41 > 0:15:45are descendents to those that came on the ship,
0:15:45 > 0:15:48about three or four generations further along the way.
0:15:50 > 0:15:52Don't want to ever go through that again. Never. Never, never.
0:15:52 > 0:15:54It brings everything back.
0:15:54 > 0:15:56Brings everything right back, you know.
0:16:03 > 0:16:06It's a cold, clear Falklands morning
0:16:06 > 0:16:11and vet Steve is on his way to the military port at Mare Harbour,
0:16:11 > 0:16:14where he'll welcome to the islands a new VIP -
0:16:14 > 0:16:16a very important pet.
0:16:20 > 0:16:22It's not any old dog, no.
0:16:22 > 0:16:25This is the dog belonging to the new Governor.
0:16:25 > 0:16:27He arrived back in April.
0:16:28 > 0:16:31And, um, and the Governor's wife.
0:16:31 > 0:16:33We've already got something from the vet in England
0:16:33 > 0:16:38to say that it was fit and healthy, just before it embarked
0:16:38 > 0:16:41on the voyage, and we will make sure that in the three weeks
0:16:41 > 0:16:44that it's taken to come down here,
0:16:44 > 0:16:48that it's just as fit and healthy on arrival as it was on departure.
0:16:51 > 0:16:54Bonnie the spaniel is waiting aboard what's known as
0:16:54 > 0:16:56a Falkland Islands resupply ship.
0:16:58 > 0:17:02Two such ships each make five journeys a year from the UK
0:17:02 > 0:17:06bringing everything from military equipment to food supplies
0:17:06 > 0:17:07and building materials.
0:17:08 > 0:17:10Space for pets is limited,
0:17:10 > 0:17:13so Bonnie's slot was booked six months ago.
0:17:13 > 0:17:16- DOG BARKING - I can hear a dog.
0:17:16 > 0:17:17I heard a dog barking.
0:17:26 > 0:17:27And you must be Bonnie.
0:17:27 > 0:17:29Hello, Bonnie. How are you?
0:17:29 > 0:17:30How are you?
0:17:30 > 0:17:34You're going to be seeing your owners very soon. Yes, you will.
0:17:35 > 0:17:37I don't need to examine her too closely,
0:17:37 > 0:17:40to know that that looks like an extremely healthy dog.
0:17:43 > 0:17:45We will read the microchip...
0:17:45 > 0:17:47If we can keep it still long enough to read the microchip.
0:17:47 > 0:17:50Are we going to have a still...? Oh, no, got it first time.
0:17:50 > 0:17:52I got it first time. Well done.
0:17:54 > 0:17:56That dog is the dog it should be.
0:17:57 > 0:17:59Now we're going to worm the dog.
0:17:59 > 0:18:02Trying to hide it as best I can...
0:18:02 > 0:18:04Here we are, what about that? What about that?
0:18:09 > 0:18:12Bonnie gets a final dose of anti-flea treatment,
0:18:12 > 0:18:15and she's ready to take her first steps on Falklands soil.
0:18:16 > 0:18:18Bonnie, Bonnie, come on, this way.
0:18:18 > 0:18:20Let's go and meet your owners.
0:18:22 > 0:18:25She's doing what she should do, look - she's sniffing.
0:18:36 > 0:18:38First time to the Falkland Islands!
0:18:39 > 0:18:42Who's that? Who's that?!
0:18:42 > 0:18:44Good doggie!
0:18:44 > 0:18:45There we are.
0:18:46 > 0:18:48Oh...!
0:18:48 > 0:18:51Absolutely wonderful. She doesn't looked fussed at all by her journey,
0:18:51 > 0:18:55- actually, does she?- No, she doesn't. Ahhh, you're beautiful, aren't you?
0:18:55 > 0:18:57Happy now?!
0:18:58 > 0:19:01We're conscious that we're going to have to control her quite well
0:19:01 > 0:19:04or we'll have some issues with Falkland Islands conservation.
0:19:04 > 0:19:06And a few others! As for penguins...
0:19:06 > 0:19:09I think we're going to have to leave that for quite a while
0:19:09 > 0:19:11before we introduce her to penguins,
0:19:11 > 0:19:13otherwise we're really going to be in trouble.
0:19:18 > 0:19:20Back at Government House,
0:19:20 > 0:19:23Bonnie wastes no time checking out her new digs.
0:19:27 > 0:19:30These rugs are being put down just to help protect the carpets,
0:19:30 > 0:19:34and guard a little a bit against white dog hair all over the red.
0:19:35 > 0:19:37Oops... Up the stairs.
0:19:39 > 0:19:41Official residences and dogs are always a slightly
0:19:41 > 0:19:43surprising mixture.
0:19:45 > 0:19:47It's slightly eyes in the back of your head.
0:19:47 > 0:19:50She is still quite a puppy in many ways,
0:19:50 > 0:19:52and she will chew cushions and run off with them.
0:19:52 > 0:19:53Uh-uh! Get off!
0:19:59 > 0:20:02The long journey down acted as a quarantine period,
0:20:02 > 0:20:04but it'll be a couple of days before
0:20:04 > 0:20:06Bonnie's worm and flea treatments
0:20:06 > 0:20:08take effect and she can finally
0:20:08 > 0:20:11be let loose on the great Falklands outdoors.
0:20:18 > 0:20:19Back on Murrell Farm,
0:20:19 > 0:20:22and after a hard morning's milking,
0:20:22 > 0:20:26Lisa has around two gallons of the white stuff to dispose of.
0:20:27 > 0:20:30Most of it will be distributed to a select group of loyal customers
0:20:30 > 0:20:32either as milk, or cream.
0:20:34 > 0:20:36You've got to be a bit careful when you turn it on
0:20:36 > 0:20:39because if it goes through too quick, it won't separate properly.
0:20:43 > 0:20:44You've got the cream coming...
0:20:44 > 0:20:47When it gets up to this black mark it's half a pint
0:20:47 > 0:20:49and that's what most people have.
0:20:49 > 0:20:52Proper cow's cream is pretty much like gold dust.
0:20:52 > 0:20:55Normally, if I put it on Facebook, if I have an excess,
0:20:55 > 0:20:58it's gone within a couple of minutes.
0:20:58 > 0:21:01But what I don't sell, I make up into the butter.
0:21:05 > 0:21:07This is the butter that we make from the cream.
0:21:08 > 0:21:11It's probably nearly... nearly two pound of butter.
0:21:15 > 0:21:18Tell me about the containers that you sell the milk in.
0:21:18 > 0:21:21- SHE LAUGHS - Well, we like rum to drink,
0:21:21 > 0:21:24and I prefer to use glass rather than plastic
0:21:24 > 0:21:27because you can sterilise the glass ones.
0:21:28 > 0:21:29Most important thing... My list!
0:21:29 > 0:21:31My list.
0:21:36 > 0:21:39Each bottle of milk sells for a pound.
0:21:39 > 0:21:42It's a lot of effort for not that much financial reward,
0:21:42 > 0:21:46but for Lisa, it's all about keeping the old traditions alive.
0:21:46 > 0:21:49Well, people wouldn't know what -
0:21:49 > 0:21:52as I put it - real milk is.
0:21:52 > 0:21:55Because even what you get in England is totally different
0:21:55 > 0:21:57because it's pasteurised.
0:21:58 > 0:22:01Where this isn't pasteurised, this is as it comes from the cow,
0:22:01 > 0:22:04so it's in its raw state,
0:22:04 > 0:22:06I suppose is the way you put it.
0:22:08 > 0:22:11And the reason we put them there, in the summer,
0:22:11 > 0:22:14when the sun's shining, they're always in the shade.
0:22:18 > 0:22:21I think people have just got so used to the packet milk, the UHT milk
0:22:21 > 0:22:23and the squirty cream,
0:22:23 > 0:22:25or the packets of cream and things like that.
0:22:31 > 0:22:34But for me it's part of my life,
0:22:34 > 0:22:36it's part of what I do, you know.
0:22:48 > 0:22:50We're not going up to the cross yet.
0:22:50 > 0:22:53Bean, don't rush around, please.
0:22:54 > 0:22:57Reverend Richard, Tim Miller and the Scouts
0:22:57 > 0:23:00are an hour into their climb up Mount Tumbledown.
0:23:00 > 0:23:02Here they come, lads - look! Look!
0:23:09 > 0:23:11That was cool! I watched them do a somersault!
0:23:11 > 0:23:14We contact the 1435 - the Typhoon flight -
0:23:14 > 0:23:17and they're only always too happy to come and give us
0:23:17 > 0:23:21a little fly-past like that, and it, you know,
0:23:21 > 0:23:24it sort of makes it a little bit more special for the kids, as well.
0:23:25 > 0:23:28Right, who hasn't been up here before?
0:23:28 > 0:23:31I'll just tell you quickly a little bit about the battle,
0:23:31 > 0:23:36that happened here 32 years ago, tonight.
0:23:36 > 0:23:38The Argentines were well...
0:23:38 > 0:23:41They'd been up here for quite a few weeks.
0:23:41 > 0:23:43They had lots of very good strong positions
0:23:43 > 0:23:47with lots of stones and rocks in front of them to hide behind.
0:23:47 > 0:23:51And it was the job of the Scots Guards to capture this mountain...
0:23:51 > 0:23:53capture Mount Tumbledown.
0:23:53 > 0:23:54And as dawn was breaking,
0:23:54 > 0:23:56the morning of the 14th of June,
0:23:56 > 0:23:57the Scots Guards managed to get
0:23:57 > 0:23:59to the top end there,
0:23:59 > 0:24:02where we can just see the top of the cross.
0:24:05 > 0:24:08I would say, push them in the ground,
0:24:08 > 0:24:10I'd say with the back of the cross towards the rock.
0:24:12 > 0:24:14Just below the summit, they plant their poppy crosses,
0:24:14 > 0:24:17and bury the beret that was entrusted to them
0:24:17 > 0:24:20by the family of a fallen Scots Guardsman.
0:24:21 > 0:24:23This is his uniform cap.
0:24:23 > 0:24:25Obviously, he wasn't wearing this at the time -
0:24:25 > 0:24:27he'd be wearing his helmet,
0:24:27 > 0:24:30but it would've been with him in his pack.
0:24:30 > 0:24:33And this is the one that his family have said they would
0:24:33 > 0:24:35like the cubs to bury up here,
0:24:35 > 0:24:36on the top of Mount Tumbledown.
0:24:36 > 0:24:38- What, their son died? - Their son died.
0:24:38 > 0:24:40He was killed here in the fighting.
0:24:40 > 0:24:42Do you want to place it in the hole?
0:24:42 > 0:24:44You're the Scots lad, aren't you?
0:24:44 > 0:24:45There we are.
0:24:54 > 0:24:59At the top of the mountain, a cross made out of steel commemorates
0:24:59 > 0:25:02the nine British soldiers that were killed during the battle.
0:25:10 > 0:25:11We have here...
0:25:11 > 0:25:16the old ammunition box and inside here...
0:25:16 > 0:25:18all the cleaning kit.
0:25:18 > 0:25:21All the memorial sites in the Falklands
0:25:21 > 0:25:22have one of these alongside them,
0:25:22 > 0:25:25in the hope that anybody and everybody who comes up
0:25:25 > 0:25:28to a memorial will then spend a couple of minutes
0:25:28 > 0:25:31polishing it up and cleaning everything up again.
0:25:31 > 0:25:35So we always give this one - the Scots Guards one -
0:25:35 > 0:25:37a good thorough clean every time we come up.
0:25:39 > 0:25:42For once, it won't be Richard leading the prayers.
0:25:42 > 0:25:45The Cubs have prepared a service to honour the dead.
0:25:45 > 0:25:49Almighty God, grant that the Scot Guards,
0:25:49 > 0:25:52who wear the cross of Thy Holy Apostle
0:25:52 > 0:25:56may follow Thy Son with impunity,
0:25:56 > 0:25:59be made stronger in brotherhood
0:25:59 > 0:26:03and fierce against all enemies of Our Saviour.
0:26:10 > 0:26:13I thought they conducted their little service beautifully.
0:26:15 > 0:26:19It's a very hands-on, a very real, tangible thing
0:26:19 > 0:26:23that they do to honour the people who are remembered
0:26:23 > 0:26:25by those plaques and that cross.
0:26:27 > 0:26:30I'll go home always remembering,
0:26:30 > 0:26:32I said my thank you with others
0:26:32 > 0:26:34for the Falkland Islands.
0:26:46 > 0:26:50At the Stanley vet surgery, it's good news.
0:26:50 > 0:26:52Bonnie the dog, recently arrived from the UK,
0:26:52 > 0:26:56has just been given the all-clear from her quarantine
0:26:56 > 0:26:59and she and Camilla are heading to Surf Bay.
0:27:02 > 0:27:05I'm taking her to the nearest beach to Stanley
0:27:05 > 0:27:07because I think she needs to let off some steam,
0:27:07 > 0:27:10having been on a lead for the last month
0:27:10 > 0:27:14so I'm expecting that she will see the sea and the beach
0:27:14 > 0:27:16and be in heaven.
0:27:18 > 0:27:19Look at that, Bonnie.
0:27:22 > 0:27:24You can't wait, can you?
0:27:35 > 0:27:37Good girl!
0:27:37 > 0:27:38SHE BARKS
0:27:38 > 0:27:39CAMILLA LAUGHS
0:27:39 > 0:27:41Wonderful to have her here.
0:27:41 > 0:27:44Just sailed over half the world to get to us.
0:27:46 > 0:27:48It's a wonderful place to have a dog,
0:27:48 > 0:27:50with all the outside, open space
0:27:50 > 0:27:53I can't really imagine anything more fun for her.
0:27:54 > 0:27:56- Bo-nnie...! - SHE WHISTLES
0:27:58 > 0:27:59Come here...!
0:28:02 > 0:28:04Next time, it's Liberation Day
0:28:04 > 0:28:06and the crew of HMS Clyde
0:28:06 > 0:28:10join the islanders for the commemorations.
0:28:10 > 0:28:15We led such a sheltered life in the Falklands, prior to 1982.
0:28:15 > 0:28:17When somebody takes your country away from you
0:28:17 > 0:28:20and suddenly you get it back,
0:28:20 > 0:28:23it is very difficult to describe the emotions.
0:28:23 > 0:28:26CHATTING AND LAUGHING
0:28:26 > 0:28:28Right, come on. Richard, let's go.
0:28:28 > 0:28:32And Reverend Richard and vet Steve brave the cold
0:28:32 > 0:28:34for the annual midwinter swim.
