0:19:36 > 0:19:39- From what I see, he does a good job.
0:19:39 > 0:19:44- I haven't heard of him - taking out a gatepost!
0:19:48 > 0:19:54- My preferred task would involve - a quad. Geraint and I race quads.
0:19:54 > 0:19:58- That would be a cool task.
0:19:59 > 0:20:04- We get on well until we race.

0:28:16 > 0:28:17- Off you go!
0:28:18 > 0:28:22- But will Gareth - and his brother see eye to eye?
0:28:23 > 0:28:24- One has gone in.
0:28:25 > 0:28:26- Well done.
0:28:27 > 0:28:31- The blue lambs go in first, - with Dion in charge.
0:28:33 > 0:28:35- That's an important load!
0:28:36 > 0:28:39- Next, carefully over the bridge.
0:28:40 > 0:28:42- Show your support!
0:28:42 > 0:28:47- In the meantime, Gareth - is busy building the first pen.
0:28:48 > 0:28:49- That looks rough.
0:28:49 > 0:28:51- Now, he has to reverse...
0:28:52 > 0:28:54- ..and aim for the pen.
0:28:56 > 0:28:59- The driver has - to reverse to the pen.
0:28:59 > 0:29:01- He's done it!
0:29:02 > 0:29:07- But how many turns will Ieuan need - to get in the right position?
0:29:07 > 0:29:10- Come on, the clock is ticking!
0:29:13 > 0:29:14- BLEEP
0:29:15 > 0:29:19- Frustration with the task - is affecting Ieuan.
0:29:19 > 0:29:20- Slowly!
0:29:23 > 0:29:24- Come on, Gareth!
0:29:24 > 0:29:27- Gareth waits - to unload the animals...
0:29:27 > 0:29:31- ..and puts them - carefully in the pen.
0:29:31 > 0:29:33- Shout, they need your support!
0:29:39 > 0:29:43- Ieuan goes back over the bridge - to fetch the second animal.
0:29:48 > 0:29:52- Dion puts the red sheep - in the trailer.
0:29:55 > 0:29:57- Gareth has almost finished the pen.
0:29:58 > 0:30:02- This one is slightly harder. - How will he cope with the bend?
0:30:03 > 0:30:07- Ieuan's second attempt - at reversing goes better.
0:30:10 > 0:30:11- Oh!
0:30:11 > 0:30:13- He almost hit the pen.
0:30:14 > 0:30:16- Out it goes. Well done!
0:30:18 > 0:30:20- Gareth, what are you doing?
0:30:21 > 0:30:22- Back you go!
0:30:24 > 0:30:27- The pig is waiting for you!
0:30:29 > 0:30:35- He's done well so far - and hasn't hit an obstacle or gate.
0:30:36 > 0:30:38- The pig is in.
0:30:47 > 0:30:48- Well done.
0:30:48 > 0:30:50- That pig almost came out.
0:30:51 > 0:30:52- Almost!
0:30:55 > 0:30:57- The other teams look very nervous.
0:30:58 > 0:31:02- Gareth helps by telling Ieuan - how to turn the bike.
0:31:02 > 0:31:04- Don't hit any obstacles!
0:31:04 > 0:31:07- Come on, Ieuan! Help him!
0:31:07 > 0:31:08- APPLAUSE
0:31:12 > 0:31:14- Back you go!
0:31:18 > 0:31:19- Hurry, Gareth!
0:31:22 > 0:31:24- Put the pig in the pen!
0:31:25 > 0:31:29- Then they pick up - the last animal, the pink cow.
0:31:30 > 0:31:31- Oh!
0:31:31 > 0:31:33- That was close.
0:31:36 > 0:31:37- Don't come out here!
0:31:43 > 0:31:46- He's got the hang - of the reversing now.
0:31:48 > 0:31:52- How will they cope? Straight over!
0:31:53 > 0:31:54- Poor old cow.
0:31:54 > 0:31:56- Hurry back, Ieuan!
0:31:58 > 0:32:00- The clock is ticking, go!
0:32:01 > 0:32:06- Ieuan races towards the finishing - line without any time penalties.
0:32:06 > 0:32:10- He finishes the course - in 7 minutes, 36 seconds.
0:32:11 > 0:32:13- Congratulations to the first team.
0:32:14 > 0:32:15- It isn't easy, Gareth.
0:32:15 > 0:32:16- It isn't easy, Gareth.- - No.
0:32:16 > 0:32:17- How did it go?
0:32:17 > 0:32:21- It'd be easier - with someone better at reversing.
0:32:22 > 0:32:24- They're already quarrelling!
0:32:24 > 0:32:27- The reversing was quite - good by the end.
0:32:27 > 0:32:28- How did it go?
0:32:28 > 0:32:30- Could do better.
0:32:30 > 0:32:32- You're not used to bikes like that.
0:32:32 > 0:32:33- You're not used to bikes like that.- - No.
0:32:33 > 0:32:35- Are you happy?
0:32:35 > 0:32:37- We've done our best.
0:32:37 > 0:32:38- That's all you can do.
0:32:38 > 0:32:41- You have fine support from Anglesey.
0:32:41 > 0:32:43- Give Team Gareth a clap!
0:32:51 > 0:32:53- Three, two, one, go!
0:32:56 > 0:32:58- I'd say he's driven one before.
0:32:59 > 0:33:04- Next on the course is Rhys, - Carys and Aeron's eldest son.
0:33:07 > 0:33:08- Well done, Carys!
0:33:08 > 0:33:09- BLEEP
0:33:10 > 0:33:11- He's stalled.
0:33:11 > 0:33:14- Rhys has trouble with the bike.
0:33:14 > 0:33:15- Come on, Rhys!
0:33:16 > 0:33:17- BLEEP
0:33:18 > 0:33:19- Come on!
0:33:19 > 0:33:20- Oh, no!
0:33:21 > 0:33:22- Back over the bridge.
0:33:23 > 0:33:24- Hurry!
0:33:26 > 0:33:28- He reaches the first pen.
0:33:28 > 0:33:33- But Richard the judge wants Rhys - to reverse right up to the pen.
0:33:33 > 0:33:34- Oh!
0:33:34 > 0:33:38- But he hits the fence - and incurs a time penalty.
0:33:43 > 0:33:47- Team Carys has no trouble - delivering the red sheep.
0:33:48 > 0:33:51- Aeron starts on the yellow pen.
0:33:53 > 0:33:58- But Rhys hasn't noticed that a rope - has fallen out of the trailer.
0:33:59 > 0:34:02- Luckily, Mam is more observant.
0:34:03 > 0:34:05- Can I go to fetch the bungee?
0:34:05 > 0:34:08- After leaving the yellow pig...
0:34:08 > 0:34:12- ..Carys notices they need the rope - to secure the next animal.
0:34:12 > 0:34:14- Careful, Carys!
0:34:19 > 0:34:22- Rhys shows better - reversing skills this time.
0:34:22 > 0:34:27- Aeron is a bit too keen to get - the pig out before the bike stops.
0:34:27 > 0:34:29- Carys has problems with the cow.
0:34:31 > 0:34:32- The end is in sight!
0:34:40 > 0:34:43- The rope is vital - to keep it safe in its place.
0:34:45 > 0:34:48- In it goes. The clock is ticking! - Support your crew!
0:34:51 > 0:34:53- Come on, Rhys and Carys!
0:34:57 > 0:34:59- You've got it now.
0:35:00 > 0:35:03- Wyn Morgan keeps - an eagle eye on the time.
0:35:04 > 0:35:06- Rhys reaches the pink pen.
0:35:06 > 0:35:10- But he still has problems - with the reversing.
0:35:11 > 0:35:12- BLEEP
0:35:14 > 0:35:15- BLEEP
0:35:22 > 0:35:24- Look at that for strength!
0:35:25 > 0:35:26- Straight in.
0:35:29 > 0:35:30- Oh!
0:35:31 > 0:35:32- One cow down!
0:35:36 > 0:35:41- Aeron loses time and regrets - not shutting the trailer gate first.
0:35:41 > 0:35:43- Shut the trailer gate!
0:35:43 > 0:35:45- He's cross with himself.
0:35:48 > 0:35:53- Team Carys finishes the course over - a minute slower than Team Gareth.
0:35:53 > 0:35:58- After time penalties, they - finish in 8 minutes, 42 seconds.
0:36:01 > 0:36:02- How did it go, Carys?
0:36:03 > 0:36:04- Fair.
0:36:05 > 0:36:07- Aeron, Dad, how did it go?
0:36:07 > 0:36:08- Perfect.
0:36:08 > 0:36:10- Was it perfect?
0:36:11 > 0:36:12- I'm not sure!
0:36:12 > 0:36:14- Rhys.
0:36:15 > 0:36:16- How did it go?
0:36:16 > 0:36:18- Terrible.
0:36:18 > 0:36:20- What went wrong?
0:36:20 > 0:36:23- I'm not familiar - with small machines.
0:36:23 > 0:36:26- I prefer big tractors and trailers.
0:36:26 > 0:36:29- Reversing the trailer was tricky.
0:36:29 > 0:36:30- Yes.
0:36:30 > 0:36:33- You had trouble getting it in gear.
0:36:33 > 0:36:34- You had trouble getting it in gear.- - I'm not familiar with it.
0:36:35 > 0:36:36- What was the problem?
0:36:36 > 0:36:37- What was the problem?- - I'm not sure.
0:36:37 > 0:36:40- You told me the goggles don't work.
0:36:41 > 0:36:43- They do, but they steamed up.
0:36:44 > 0:36:46- Everything went wrong for him!
0:36:47 > 0:36:49- Yes. He's young.
