0:00:02 > 0:00:07The Falkland Islands are home to a population of around 2,500 people,
0:00:07 > 0:00:09half a million sheep
0:00:09 > 0:00:12and over a million penguins.
0:00:14 > 0:00:17They may be the other side of the world from the UK,
0:00:17 > 0:00:20but this small, tight-knit community,
0:00:20 > 0:00:23many of whom are descended from 19th century settlers,
0:00:23 > 0:00:26still has strong ties with the mother country.
0:00:29 > 0:00:31As the new year gets underway,
0:00:31 > 0:00:34it's summer in the Southern Hemisphere,
0:00:34 > 0:00:36and for the first time, the rector's wife, Jen,
0:00:36 > 0:00:41has decided to brave the competition at the annual horticultural show.
0:00:41 > 0:00:45When you look at the cakes, they are just
0:00:45 > 0:00:47mouth-wateringly good.
0:00:48 > 0:00:51And the islanders welcome some honoured guests,
0:00:51 > 0:00:54veterans of the 1982 war
0:00:54 > 0:00:57who have returned to remember their fallen comrades.
0:00:57 > 0:01:01Every time I come back it makes me that little bit stronger, I think,
0:01:01 > 0:01:04but it makes me glad that I do keep coming back.
0:01:39 > 0:01:42It's a bright Sunday morning in Stanley
0:01:42 > 0:01:44and the rector of the Falkland Islands,
0:01:44 > 0:01:45the Reverend Richard Hines,
0:01:45 > 0:01:48is on his way to Christchurch Cathedral.
0:01:49 > 0:01:53This will be his first service back after a three week round trip
0:01:53 > 0:01:56that took him the tiny island of South Georgia,
0:01:56 > 0:02:00one of the furthest corners of his 6,000 square mile parish.
0:02:00 > 0:02:03Good morning to you all and welcome, everyone.
0:02:05 > 0:02:09Thank you. I'm pleased you could come!
0:02:09 > 0:02:10RICHARD LAUGHS
0:02:10 > 0:02:14'It's good to be back here in the Falkland Islands,'
0:02:14 > 0:02:18it's been three weeks or more, I can't quite remember.
0:02:18 > 0:02:21I have to stop and think carefully about it now, but anyway, we've done
0:02:21 > 0:02:24well over 3,000 nautical miles.
0:02:25 > 0:02:28I'm pleased to say it does feel like coming home.
0:02:29 > 0:02:32As well as ministering to his congregation in the cathedral
0:02:32 > 0:02:34and his wider parish
0:02:34 > 0:02:37Richard has several other regular commitments,
0:02:37 > 0:02:39one of which is as an occasional presenter
0:02:39 > 0:02:44of the weekly classical music programme on Falkland Islands Radio.
0:02:44 > 0:02:46I first did this
0:02:46 > 0:02:49just a few months into my time here in the Falkland Islands
0:02:49 > 0:02:52when somebody discovered I had an interest in classical music.
0:02:52 > 0:02:55Basically, I get to indulge my own musical tastes.
0:02:55 > 0:02:59I like to put together an hour's worth of music.
0:02:59 > 0:03:03I usually, well almost always, write a script,
0:03:03 > 0:03:05so I know where I'm going,
0:03:05 > 0:03:09just a short little introduction to the pieces I'm going to play,
0:03:09 > 0:03:10I look for themes.
0:03:10 > 0:03:12And I suppose I've presented now,
0:03:12 > 0:03:15perhaps seven or eight times a year at least
0:03:15 > 0:03:17for the last six years,
0:03:17 > 0:03:19so I'm becoming quite a seasoned presenter, really.
0:03:19 > 0:03:22Perhaps there's a job for me in the future.
0:03:23 > 0:03:26But Richard's tastes aren't restricted to the classics.
0:03:26 > 0:03:29MUSIC: Running Up That Hill by Kate Bush
0:03:35 > 0:03:38I couldn't live without music, I wouldn't want to live without music.
0:03:38 > 0:03:42I have good reason, Jen and I, to be grateful to God for Kate Bush,
0:03:42 > 0:03:46because at times, when it's been a bit stressful
0:03:46 > 0:03:49in the work I do and in our life here in the Falkland Islands,
0:03:49 > 0:03:54we've often turned to Kate Bush and her albums for enjoyment.
0:03:54 > 0:03:55CLASSICAL MUSIC
0:03:57 > 0:04:00While Richard settles back into life at the Deanery,
0:04:00 > 0:04:05over in Government House, they're preparing for a big change.
0:04:05 > 0:04:07The governorship of the Falkland Islands
0:04:07 > 0:04:09is a three to our year posting
0:04:09 > 0:04:12and in a few weeks' time the current incumbent,
0:04:12 > 0:04:15Nigel Haywood, will be retiring
0:04:15 > 0:04:18and returning to the UK for good.
0:04:18 > 0:04:20One of the things about being a diplomat is you get used to
0:04:20 > 0:04:23packing everything up and moving every few years.
0:04:23 > 0:04:24It doesn't make it any more pleasant,
0:04:24 > 0:04:28but it's kind of an occupational hazard.
0:04:28 > 0:04:32And there's a lot of, obviously personal pleasure I've had
0:04:32 > 0:04:35from just simply being down here, in a wonderful place,
0:04:35 > 0:04:38having so much wildlife,
0:04:38 > 0:04:42just lots of clear air and so much fishing to do.
0:04:44 > 0:04:48Nigel is a keen angler and one of the definite perks of this job
0:04:48 > 0:04:50has been that the Falkland Islands boasts
0:04:50 > 0:04:53some of the finest trout fishing in the world
0:04:53 > 0:04:56and today is probably the last chance he'll get
0:04:56 > 0:04:58to indulge his passion.
0:04:58 > 0:05:00OK. Right.
0:05:00 > 0:05:02So, what's the plan today then?
0:05:02 > 0:05:07Well, we'll go out to the Pedro River and see what's out there.
0:05:07 > 0:05:09One of the great things about the job is,
0:05:09 > 0:05:12almost the minute you're out of the door, you're in amazing country,
0:05:12 > 0:05:13scenery and everything.
0:05:20 > 0:05:24The Pedro River is only an hour and a half's journey out of Stanley.
0:05:26 > 0:05:30At this time of year, the sea trout are heading back upstream to spawn
0:05:30 > 0:05:34after a summer spent eating krill or baby shrimp out in the open sea.
0:05:35 > 0:05:40As you see, most of the flies are bright and orange,
0:05:40 > 0:05:45to look a bit like a krill. It's very, kind of impressionistic.
0:05:45 > 0:05:48I've had my biggest fish on the Falkland Islands on one of these,
0:05:48 > 0:05:53so it's a bit of a lucky fly to fish with.
0:05:57 > 0:06:01The Pedro River is known as a bit of a hot spot for sea trout
0:06:01 > 0:06:05and for his swansong, Nigel is determined to land a whopper.
0:06:08 > 0:06:11Everyone says you must be incredibly patient to go fishing,
0:06:11 > 0:06:15but it's not patience at all, it's, sort of controlled impatience.
0:06:18 > 0:06:20And third time lucky.
0:06:23 > 0:06:25You'd probably give up
0:06:25 > 0:06:29if you didn't catch fish reasonably consistently.
0:06:29 > 0:06:32But getting a big fish,
0:06:32 > 0:06:37which, sort of frightens you up a bit, is largely a matter of luck.
0:06:37 > 0:06:38Here you are!
0:06:44 > 0:06:47About 11 inches, but not what we're after.
0:06:49 > 0:06:52I was excited for a minute there.
0:06:56 > 0:06:58This is genuinely interesting,
0:06:58 > 0:07:00I really have no idea where they are.
0:07:00 > 0:07:02They must be in there somewhere!
0:07:04 > 0:07:06Very strange.
0:07:06 > 0:07:09Still, let's keep on trucking.
0:07:13 > 0:07:15It's been over 30 years now
0:07:15 > 0:07:19since the Falklands conflict turned the spotlight of the world
0:07:19 > 0:07:21on to these wild and rugged shores.
0:07:22 > 0:07:25Since then, island life has changed dramatically.
0:07:25 > 0:07:29Industries like fishing and tourism have brought new prosperity,
0:07:29 > 0:07:33but the memory of that violent and bloody time remains.
0:07:38 > 0:07:40In his six years on the islands,
0:07:40 > 0:07:43the Reverend Richard has witnessed first hand
0:07:43 > 0:07:46the effect of the war on those who lived through it.
0:07:48 > 0:07:52We're in the 1982 memorial wood,
0:07:52 > 0:07:55pretty much in the centre of Stanley
0:07:55 > 0:08:00and in some ways this represents a kind of spiritual heart
0:08:00 > 0:08:04for the Falkland Islands, because in this wood
0:08:04 > 0:08:07there is a separate tree or shrub
0:08:07 > 0:08:11planted for every single service person
0:08:11 > 0:08:13who died in the 1982 war
0:08:13 > 0:08:17and the three civilians who died as well.
0:08:21 > 0:08:26I've met people who tell me that they still dream about
0:08:26 > 0:08:28the time of the occupation
0:08:28 > 0:08:31under the Argentines in '82 on a weekly basis.
0:08:32 > 0:08:34It's very live.
0:08:34 > 0:08:37You don't understand a Falkland islander or Falkland Islands
0:08:37 > 0:08:39unless you've got some sort of appreciation
0:08:39 > 0:08:42of the effects of the 1982 war.
0:08:44 > 0:08:49There are 255 individual servicemen remembered in this garden,
0:08:49 > 0:08:51all of whom gave their lives
0:08:51 > 0:08:55so that the Falkland Islands could remain British.
0:08:55 > 0:08:58One regiment that sustained particularly heavy losses
0:08:58 > 0:09:00was the Welsh Guards,
0:09:00 > 0:09:02who were involved in one of the worst single incidents
0:09:02 > 0:09:06suffered by British forces during the whole campaign.
0:09:07 > 0:09:11On June the 8th at Fitzroy Bay, 20 miles from Stanley,
0:09:11 > 0:09:14men from the Welsh Guards were on board the troop ship,
0:09:14 > 0:09:18the Sir Galahad, when Argentine planes attacked it
0:09:18 > 0:09:21and the Sir Tristram as they lay at anchor.
0:09:21 > 0:09:26The bombing left 54 men dead and 46 injured.
0:09:30 > 0:09:34In the centre of Stanley is a cafe run by Michelle Evans.
0:09:34 > 0:09:37In June 1982, Michelle was 16
0:09:37 > 0:09:42and living with her father Ron on a farm at Fitzroy.
0:09:42 > 0:09:44On that fateful day,
0:09:44 > 0:09:48the first thing she remembers was a telephone call bringing good news.
0:09:48 > 0:09:51I can't remember, the phone rang anyway and, um...
0:09:51 > 0:09:55..I went and answered it and the guy said, "It's the British Army."
0:09:55 > 0:09:59So I went to get Dad and he wouldn't believe me, cos I told so many lies!
0:09:59 > 0:10:03So I just had to jump up and down until he believed me
0:10:03 > 0:10:06and went and answered the telephone.
0:10:06 > 0:10:08Yeah, that was a really exciting moment, that was.
0:10:08 > 0:10:11They said, "Oh, well, we'll see you later on."
0:10:11 > 0:10:12And I said, "Well, where were they?"
0:10:12 > 0:10:14And he said, "Well, that doesn't matter."
0:10:14 > 0:10:16But I knew they could only be two places,
0:10:16 > 0:10:20as there's only two phones between us, here and Goose Green, so...
0:10:22 > 0:10:26But excitement at the prospect of liberation soon turned to horror
0:10:26 > 0:10:29when they heard about what had happened in the bay.
0:10:31 > 0:10:34They bombed both ships at about 12 o'clock,
0:10:34 > 0:10:38and we saw all the wounded that came out around the community centre
0:10:38 > 0:10:40that had been turned into a hospital.
0:10:42 > 0:10:45I always remember seeing the guys with the bags on their hands,
0:10:45 > 0:10:46it was horrible.
0:10:57 > 0:11:00There were so many of them injured, and it was awful.
0:11:02 > 0:11:07It's still very clear, you know. Everything's very clear.
0:11:09 > 0:11:14I never had any doubt in my mind that they would come and free us, yeah.
0:11:14 > 0:11:18But lucky we had Maggie Thatcher, I guess, at the time.
0:11:18 > 0:11:22The gratitude that the islanders feel towards their liberators
0:11:22 > 0:11:25is as strong today as it was all those ago.
0:11:28 > 0:11:32On the extreme eastern edge of Stanley stands Liberty Lodge,
0:11:32 > 0:11:35a guest house set up by veterans and islanders
0:11:35 > 0:11:40where returning service personnel and their families can stay for free
0:11:40 > 0:11:42whenever they visit the islands.
0:11:42 > 0:11:43KNOCK AT DOOR
0:11:45 > 0:11:50Hello! Welcome to Liberty Lodge! How are you?
0:11:50 > 0:11:54Tony Davis is an ex-regimental sergeant major in the Welsh Guards
0:11:54 > 0:11:57who witnessed the terrible events at Fitzroy.
0:11:59 > 0:12:01He was one of the co-founders of Liberty Lodge
0:12:01 > 0:12:03and he's come all the way from the UK
0:12:03 > 0:12:07to attend a barbecue celebrating its fifth anniversary.
0:12:09 > 0:12:12Friends.
0:12:12 > 0:12:15Pardon me for interrupting proceedings this afternoon,
0:12:15 > 0:12:18but we'd just like to say a thank-you, in the hope that
0:12:18 > 0:12:22you'll continue to help us to keep it going!
0:12:23 > 0:12:29I mean, we've had hundreds of people through these doors, and to date,
0:12:29 > 0:12:33not one single person has been charged a penny to stay here.
0:12:33 > 0:12:37Smoke and I were sat on the veranda the other night talking
0:12:37 > 0:12:41and I remember the first day we come here after it was built,
0:12:41 > 0:12:44He jumped out the Land-Rover, and cried.
0:12:45 > 0:12:49And I said to him the night before last, "You know what?
0:12:49 > 0:12:50"The place looks as good now
0:12:50 > 0:12:53"as it did when we opened it four years ago."
0:12:53 > 0:12:54Thank you very much indeed.
0:12:54 > 0:12:56APPLAUSE
0:12:59 > 0:13:04More and more people, especially after the ten, 15-year mark,
0:13:04 > 0:13:10started coming forward and admitting they were having psychological
0:13:10 > 0:13:13problems dealing with it, themselves, and of course,
0:13:13 > 0:13:16a whole part of the cure, and I have to say
0:13:16 > 0:13:20it's been extremely successful, not totally for everybody,
0:13:20 > 0:13:22but it's been extremely successful,
0:13:22 > 0:13:26has been the fact that people have come down here, visited the places
0:13:26 > 0:13:29where they had their nightmares, and put their ghosts to rest.
0:13:30 > 0:13:34As part of his visit, Tony will return to Fitzroy
0:13:34 > 0:13:38for a special service to honour his fallen comrades.
0:13:39 > 0:13:41As often as I go back to Fitzroy...
0:13:44 > 0:13:47..I still have a mega-problem dealing with it.
0:13:47 > 0:13:49I know I'll have a difficult day.
0:13:59 > 0:14:02The climate in the Falklands is similar to that in the UK,
0:14:02 > 0:14:04cool and temperate.
0:14:05 > 0:14:07But they do have a lot of wind to contend with
0:14:07 > 0:14:11which makes growing anything extremely difficult.
0:14:13 > 0:14:15Step forward the polytunnel,
0:14:15 > 0:14:18a common sight in back gardens all over the islands
0:14:18 > 0:14:22and the saving grace of many an enthusiastic gardener,
0:14:22 > 0:14:25including Richard's wife, Jen,
0:14:25 > 0:14:28whose passion for horticulture stems from her childhood.
0:14:30 > 0:14:34From a very early age, I was the person who went out and cut
0:14:34 > 0:14:38the grass at home. There's something about neatness that I like.
0:14:38 > 0:14:42The polytunnel is my domain. It's lovely in here.
0:14:42 > 0:14:45I would never have considered a polytunnel in England,
0:14:45 > 0:14:48but here, it's been an absolute boon.
0:14:48 > 0:14:51The one thing I'm most proud of are the strawberries.
0:14:51 > 0:14:54If I get enough at any time, then I'll make jam.
0:14:55 > 0:14:59Jen's jam is not just for spreading on toast and scones.
0:14:59 > 0:15:02It's also the key ingredient in her jam tarts
0:15:02 > 0:15:05and, this year, she's taking the bold step of entering them
0:15:05 > 0:15:08into the Stanley horticultural show, pitting herself against
0:15:08 > 0:15:10the islands' best bakers.
0:15:10 > 0:15:13I haven't got as many as I started with because the first ones
0:15:13 > 0:15:19come out broke, so Richard helped me out by eating them.
0:15:19 > 0:15:24So, I don't have as many as I did have to begin with.
0:15:24 > 0:15:28I'm not ever-so competitive, but I like to think I'm in with a chance,
0:15:28 > 0:15:32and I always thought the standard here would be really high.
0:15:32 > 0:15:36This time I thought I would have a go, because I made some jam tarts
0:15:36 > 0:15:40recently and somebody said they were really nice,
0:15:40 > 0:15:43so I thought, well, I'll put some in and see if they like them.
0:15:43 > 0:15:46But jam tarts aren't Jen's only hope.
0:15:46 > 0:15:49She's got several other contenders lined up
0:15:49 > 0:15:51to compete in different categories.
0:15:53 > 0:15:57I've got my white bread, my blackcurrant jam.
0:15:57 > 0:16:00The blackcurrants I grew in the polytunnel.
0:16:00 > 0:16:03The gooseberries grew outside
0:16:03 > 0:16:07and then I've got a couple of house plants and some marigolds.
0:16:09 > 0:16:11Three stems - they asked for three stems.
0:16:11 > 0:16:17I'm going to bring the bread home because that's my freshest loaf, but
0:16:17 > 0:16:21everything else I will leave down there and it'll be auctioned off
0:16:21 > 0:16:25at the end of the show, and people will buy it, hopefully,
0:16:25 > 0:16:26and enjoy it.
0:16:28 > 0:16:32Over at the radio station in Stanley, Richard is settling in
0:16:32 > 0:16:38with producer Monica, in preparation for this week's Simply Classical.
0:16:38 > 0:16:40It's the first time they've seen each other
0:16:40 > 0:16:43since Richard got back from South Georgia.
0:16:43 > 0:16:44So how was your trip?
0:16:44 > 0:16:47I've brought some pictures to show you.
0:16:47 > 0:16:48Mm. Oh, yes.
0:16:48 > 0:16:50So is it really, really cold?
0:16:50 > 0:16:54Actually, no. Well, it's sort of like summer time, so it's better,
0:16:54 > 0:16:56but you'll see a lot of ice in a minute.
0:16:56 > 0:16:58It wasn't all work, so I was able to read my novel
0:16:58 > 0:17:02and drink my Coca-Cola and have the occasional alcoholic beverage!
0:17:02 > 0:17:04Looks like cocktails to me!
0:17:05 > 0:17:08I don't really get too nervous now.
0:17:08 > 0:17:11Any nerves that I have, when I walk in that door
0:17:11 > 0:17:14they seem to evaporate, because Monica puts me completely...
0:17:14 > 0:17:18I'm like putty in her hands. I'm completely at ease.
0:17:18 > 0:17:19We're getting ready.
0:17:20 > 0:17:23Good evening and welcome to Simply Classical.
0:17:23 > 0:17:25My name is Richard Hines.
0:17:25 > 0:17:29Let's spend the next hour together with Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky.
0:17:30 > 0:17:33Richard's planned an hour-long programme
0:17:33 > 0:17:36based around a selection of his favourite Tchaikovsky pieces,
0:17:36 > 0:17:39starting with a lively carnival number
0:17:39 > 0:17:41to get the show off to a good start.
0:17:42 > 0:17:45Tchaikovsky's Capriccio Italien.
0:17:48 > 0:17:50SHE GASPS
0:17:50 > 0:17:51(There's an error!)
0:18:01 > 0:18:03Nothing! It's stopped playing.
0:18:03 > 0:18:06We'll have to put the other one on.
0:18:06 > 0:18:09It's not playing. Your disc's not working.
0:18:09 > 0:18:11What can I put up?
0:18:11 > 0:18:13SHE LAUGHS
0:18:14 > 0:18:17With his carefully-laid plans in disarray,
0:18:17 > 0:18:20Richard has to use a piece of music that was meant for later on,
0:18:20 > 0:18:22which means he's now a track short.
0:18:24 > 0:18:27Time for a swift exit.
0:18:27 > 0:18:28I'm going to run!
0:18:33 > 0:18:36Luckily, his home music collection isn't far away.
0:18:41 > 0:18:45What would be good in place of Tchaikovsky?
0:18:46 > 0:18:50I'll go for some Mozart, Tchaikovsky and Mozart.
0:18:54 > 0:18:57Now he just needs to get back before the music finishes.
0:19:00 > 0:19:02Right, get ready.
0:19:08 > 0:19:12From orchestra and piano, we turn now to the orchestra with violin -
0:19:12 > 0:19:15a ravishingly beautiful canzonetta
0:19:15 > 0:19:18which is the andante, the second movement,
0:19:18 > 0:19:21of Tchaikovsky's Violin Concerto.
0:19:22 > 0:19:23(Yes!)
0:19:23 > 0:19:25MUSIC STARTS
0:19:25 > 0:19:27Well done.
0:19:27 > 0:19:29- It doesn't make sense. - Oh, we've stopped!
0:19:29 > 0:19:30What is it...?
0:19:33 > 0:19:35(What's happened?)
0:19:35 > 0:19:37We can go to Mo...
0:19:37 > 0:19:39(Just talk.)
0:19:40 > 0:19:44Well, our music from Tchaikovsky there has faded out for some reason,
0:19:44 > 0:19:48and so we're going to move on to close our evening,
0:19:48 > 0:19:52again with music from Tchaikovsky, but we turn to
0:19:52 > 0:19:56a selection the composer himself made. Enjoy the music now.
0:19:58 > 0:20:02Thankfully, the technology gremlins have had their fun for the day
0:20:02 > 0:20:06and Richard's final selection plays out without a hitch.
0:20:06 > 0:20:11We have fully recovered now from our technical challenges.
0:20:11 > 0:20:14It's a bit like going into a simulator, a pilot.
0:20:14 > 0:20:16They throw all sorts of strange circumstances at you
0:20:16 > 0:20:19and we've been tested together and we've come through, Monica.
0:20:26 > 0:20:28Back on the Pedro river,
0:20:28 > 0:20:31it's been a long day for the governor, Nigel Hayward.
0:20:33 > 0:20:37This could be his last-ever opportunity to fish for sea trout
0:20:37 > 0:20:39in the Falkland Islands, and it looks like he's going to be
0:20:39 > 0:20:41going home empty-handed.
0:20:44 > 0:20:48I think my record is 13 trips without a fish in the UK,
0:20:48 > 0:20:52so you can keep going on that, but you'll eventually catch something
0:20:52 > 0:20:55and frankly it's just nice being out by the waterside.
0:20:58 > 0:21:01Any day spent out fishing has got to be better than a day
0:21:01 > 0:21:02spent behind a desk, anyway.
0:21:04 > 0:21:06Right, this'll get them.
0:21:09 > 0:21:13What is it? Insanity - that's repeating the same thing
0:21:13 > 0:21:15while expecting a different outcome.
0:21:24 > 0:21:25Ah! Got one!
0:21:25 > 0:21:28The odd thing about it is, you quite often know
0:21:28 > 0:21:30when you're going to get a fish.
0:21:30 > 0:21:32Everything goes quiet and then a few seconds later,
0:21:32 > 0:21:35you might just get a fish on the end.
0:21:35 > 0:21:36Told you we'd do it!
0:21:41 > 0:21:45And there we are - one Falklands sea trout.
0:21:45 > 0:21:48She's a lovely fish, really beautiful.
0:21:49 > 0:21:52A gleam to it, absolutely silver, fresh in from the sea.
0:21:52 > 0:21:57And that'll be, I don't know, a couple of pounds,
0:21:57 > 0:21:58something like that.
0:22:13 > 0:22:14Excellent.
0:22:15 > 0:22:16Six o'clock. Bang on!
0:22:24 > 0:22:28Over at the parish hall, the horticultural show has attracted
0:22:28 > 0:22:32quite a crowd, with everyone eager to find out who's done well.
0:22:39 > 0:22:41There's one of Jen's.
0:22:42 > 0:22:46I'm really pleased with that, to get a first prize for the lavender!
0:22:46 > 0:22:52Look, George! Jen got first prize for her plants.
0:22:57 > 0:23:00Jen's entries have all been judged
0:23:00 > 0:23:02and she's delighted with the results.
0:23:02 > 0:23:05There's a lovely bread. Mine was a highly commended.
0:23:07 > 0:23:11So I got a highly commended on the blackcurrant.
0:23:11 > 0:23:13And the jam tarts are down here.
0:23:15 > 0:23:19The first prize don't look any better than those,
0:23:19 > 0:23:22but there we are!
0:23:22 > 0:23:26But when you look at the cakes, that's why I didn't enter any cakes
0:23:26 > 0:23:30because they are just mouth-wateringly good.
0:23:35 > 0:23:39Everywhere you look, the islands' creativity is on display.
0:23:42 > 0:23:43This year for gardeners...
0:23:43 > 0:23:46The president of the horticultural society, Tim Miller,
0:23:46 > 0:23:50is handing out the silverware to those who've done especially well.
0:23:55 > 0:23:59Right, so the first one is Gary Clements and Linda McGreg.
0:23:59 > 0:24:02APPLAUSE AND CHEERING
0:24:09 > 0:24:12For the most points in the pot plants, section A,
0:24:12 > 0:24:17and the winner here, Jen Hines.
0:24:17 > 0:24:18APPLAUSE
0:24:27 > 0:24:32I am just...I was just saying yesterday I'm not competitive.
0:24:32 > 0:24:33I'm not competitive,
0:24:33 > 0:24:35but it is very gratifying.
0:24:35 > 0:24:39Well, I mean, all my entries either got a highly commended
0:24:39 > 0:24:41or a first prize, so that's good.
0:24:41 > 0:24:42There were no also-rans.
0:24:49 > 0:24:52It's the day of the Fitzroy memorial service.
0:24:52 > 0:24:55And on a windy promontory overlooking the bay,
0:24:55 > 0:24:58Tony Davis and the other Welsh Guard veterans are gathering
0:24:58 > 0:25:03to remember that day in June, 1982, when the ships were bombed
0:25:03 > 0:25:05and so many of their comrades were lost.
0:25:07 > 0:25:10They've brought with them a flag, signed by fellow Guardsmen
0:25:10 > 0:25:13to honour their dead brothers-in-arms.
0:25:20 > 0:25:22The Sir Galahad was about 250 yards over there,
0:25:22 > 0:25:26and she was burning and lots of explosions.
0:25:26 > 0:25:28The Tristram had also been bombed,
0:25:28 > 0:25:31and she was burning on the back end,
0:25:31 > 0:25:33and she'd run aground just over there.
0:25:33 > 0:25:36In the meantime, there were helicopters hovering in the bay
0:25:36 > 0:25:39looking for anybody that was in the water.
0:25:42 > 0:25:43I mean the one...
0:25:46 > 0:25:51..good thing, if I could call it that, that I take away from
0:25:51 > 0:25:54that particular day was watching...
0:25:56 > 0:25:58..our young men...
0:25:59 > 0:26:01..treating their mates.
0:26:01 > 0:26:05Every time I come back it just makes it a little bit stronger I think,
0:26:05 > 0:26:08and it makes me glad that I do keep coming back...
0:26:10 > 0:26:12to remember these guys.
0:26:12 > 0:26:16They were fantastic guys, every one of them. Bless them.
0:26:20 > 0:26:22Good morning to you all.
0:26:23 > 0:26:26- I've got some orders of service here...- Yeah, why not.
0:26:26 > 0:26:29..but you'll have to just hang on to them if they get torn to
0:26:29 > 0:26:33shreds in the wind, now you know why I laminate mine!
0:26:33 > 0:26:35Thank you.
0:26:42 > 0:26:44A word of welcome to you all.
0:26:45 > 0:26:49It's always windy when we gather here at Fitzroy,
0:26:49 > 0:26:51but that doesn't deter us.
0:26:51 > 0:26:55We meet here today to recall
0:26:55 > 0:26:59the events of the 8th of June 1982.
0:27:01 > 0:27:05Especially the bombing of the Royal Fleet Auxiliary Sir Galahad
0:27:05 > 0:27:08and the Royal Fleet Auxiliary Sir Tristram.
0:27:10 > 0:27:15"They shall grow not old as we that are left grow old,
0:27:16 > 0:27:21"Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
0:27:23 > 0:27:30"At the going down of the sun and in the morning we will remember them."
0:27:30 > 0:27:33We will remember them.
0:27:35 > 0:27:36CHOIR SINGS
0:27:36 > 0:27:42MUSIC: Myfanwy by Joseph Parry
0:27:51 > 0:27:55Next time - the vet Steve Pointing has a new patient.
0:27:55 > 0:27:57What have we called him?
0:27:57 > 0:27:59Cedric?
0:27:59 > 0:28:02Cedric's lapping up the luxury treatment.
0:28:02 > 0:28:06Nice... In the wild, they'll eat as much as they can, when they can,
0:28:06 > 0:28:10and then they may go several days without eating anything at all.
0:28:10 > 0:28:13A bit of a spoilt penguin, definitely.
0:28:13 > 0:28:15And Reverend Richard and Jen
0:28:15 > 0:28:18head out for a day in the fresh air, hunting for the famous
0:28:18 > 0:28:21Falkland Island diddle-dee berries.
0:28:22 > 0:28:26# We plough the fields and scatter... #
0:28:26 > 0:28:31Not every clergyman gets to spend his day off picking
0:28:31 > 0:28:32berries in the Falkland Islands.
