0:00:06 > 0:00:09- Trees are a natural part - of the countryside.

0:00:09 > 0:00:13- For some farmers, - they are a way of generating income.

0:00:13 > 0:00:17- That's precisely - what's happened at this farm.

0:00:17 > 0:00:19- How? Find out later.

0:00:27 > 0:00:31- Also tonight, with a continued need - to improve efficiency...

0:00:32 > 0:00:37- ..Alun visits a farm which has - adapted over the past decade.

0:00:37 > 0:00:42- We'll also find out - why Christianne Glossop...

0:00:42 > 0:00:47- ..has decided to walk across Wales - from Anchor to Aberystwyth.

0:00:53 > 0:00:57- A month ago, - I visited a farm in Porthmadog...

0:00:57 > 0:01:00- ..where dogs - had been attacking sheep.

0:01:00 > 0:01:04- Since then, we've heard - of numerous other cases.

0:01:04 > 0:01:06- Meinir has more on the story.

0:01:15 > 0:01:19- Charles Lamb from Dolwen Farm - near Fishguard...

0:01:19 > 0:01:22- ..is one farmer who's been affected.

0:01:22 > 0:01:25- This is where it all happened?

0:01:25 > 0:01:28- I was sat in the house, - at the kitchen table.

0:01:28 > 0:01:33- I saw the sheep passing by heading - up to the top of the field.

0:01:33 > 0:01:39- I couldn't see the dogs - but I heard them down in the valley.

0:01:40 > 0:01:45- I ran down and that's where they - were pulling some lambs apart.

0:01:45 > 0:01:49- It must have been - a frightening sight.

0:01:52 > 0:01:55- It played on my mind - for a while afterwards...

0:01:56 > 0:01:59- ..seeing an animal - killed in front of me.

0:01:59 > 0:02:04- I was very angry to see - something like that happening.

0:02:05 > 0:02:07- You recognised the dogs.

0:02:07 > 0:02:11- Afterwards, I discovered that - the dogs had come from next door.

0:02:11 > 0:02:13- What happened then?

0:02:13 > 0:02:16- It was a long process - involving the police.

0:02:17 > 0:02:20- She instructed a solicitor - to fight her case.

0:02:20 > 0:02:24- The police were on my side - and it continued for six months.

0:02:24 > 0:02:27- As long as that? - What was the outcome?

0:02:27 > 0:02:30- There's a restraining order - on the dogs.

0:02:31 > 0:02:34- If the dogs are seen - outside the farm boundaries...

0:02:34 > 0:02:37- ..she'll be summoned to court.

0:02:37 > 0:02:42- I was also awarded compensation - of 500.

0:02:43 > 0:02:47- Almost 20 miles west, - on Maesyfelin Farm, Llanglydwen...

0:02:48 > 0:02:53- ..Paul and Eirlys Williams have also - suffered as a result of dog attacks.

0:02:54 > 0:02:58- I came home lunchtime - after visiting another farm.

0:02:58 > 0:03:02- I checked the sheep because - we were in the middle of lambing.

0:03:03 > 0:03:05- I noticed one dead lamb - in the field.

0:03:06 > 0:03:08- Then another and another.

0:03:09 > 0:03:13- I looked across the field and - I could see two dogs running around.

0:03:14 > 0:03:17- I chased them but they were faster - than me and I lost sight of them.

0:03:18 > 0:03:23- I drove off to search for the owner, - he was searching for the dogs...

0:03:23 > 0:03:26- ..so I was fortunate enough - to find him.

0:03:26 > 0:03:30- He came back with me to see - the damage the dogs had done.

0:03:30 > 0:03:35- We walked around the field - and found 27 lambs...

0:03:35 > 0:03:38- ..and three sheep dead.

0:03:38 > 0:03:42- Every farmer has a thick skin - but that was hard to take.

0:03:43 > 0:03:46- How much of an impact - did it have on you as a family?

0:03:46 > 0:03:48- It wasn't nice to see.

0:03:48 > 0:03:52- Paul went out - to collect the dead animals.

0:03:52 > 0:03:54- I didn't see all that.

0:03:56 > 0:04:01- To see the lambs in one pile - wasn't nice at all.

0:04:01 > 0:04:03- I was in tears.

0:04:03 > 0:04:07- Thinking back to all the work - that had gone into everything...

0:04:08 > 0:04:09- ..it wasn't nice at all.

0:04:11 > 0:04:14- Often, - dog attacks on cattle happen...

0:04:15 > 0:04:19- ..when walkers - let their dogs off the lead.

0:04:19 > 0:04:22- One man who often walks in the - countryside is Arwel Michael...

0:04:22 > 0:04:25- ..from the Edward Llwyd Society.

0:04:25 > 0:04:27- As a society...

0:04:27 > 0:04:30- ..do you allow dogs - to join your walks?

0:04:30 > 0:04:36- No, only guide dogs - for the blind and partially sighted.

0:04:37 > 0:04:42- No other dogs are allowed to walk - with members of Edward Llwyd.

0:04:42 > 0:04:43- Why have you taken that decision?

0:04:43 > 0:04:45- Why have you taken that decision?- - It's an inconvenience.

0:04:46 > 0:04:51- You have to pick up dog mess when - you should concentrate on the walk.

0:04:51 > 0:04:55- You shouldn't be concentrating - on what your dog is doing...

0:04:56 > 0:04:59- ..and you don't want them - damaging the land.

0:04:59 > 0:05:04- It is your responsibility - to make sure your dog is safe.

0:05:04 > 0:05:07- You have to give the dog - your full focus...

0:05:07 > 0:05:11- ..when you're surrounded - by sheep, cattle and other animals.

0:05:11 > 0:05:15- Do you see examples - of irresponsible dog walkers...

0:05:16 > 0:05:17- ..on your walks?

0:05:18 > 0:05:21- All the time - but they are in a minority.

0:05:22 > 0:05:27- You see sheep running by - and then some dogs chasing them.

0:05:28 > 0:05:33- The individual can get into trouble - if they leave their dogs loose.

0:05:33 > 0:05:36- Cattle can turn on dogs - and injure them.

0:05:36 > 0:05:38- It's a danger to them.

0:05:38 > 0:05:43- There are many repercussions for - walking dogs in the countryside.

0:05:44 > 0:05:47- There are almost 600,000 dogs - in Wales.

0:05:47 > 0:05:50- With an increase in dog attacks - on livestock...

0:05:50 > 0:05:53- ..is there enough advice available - to dog owners?

0:05:54 > 0:05:58- Someone who deals with rural crimes - for Dyfed Powys Police...

0:05:58 > 0:06:01- ..is Acting Inspector - Matthew Howells.

0:06:02 > 0:06:06- We have around 12-20 calls - every month.

0:06:06 > 0:06:11- That can vary from sheep just - being chased with no injuries...

0:06:11 > 0:06:17- ..to around 4-6 - being injured or killed.

0:06:17 > 0:06:21- What's your advice to anyone - seeing dogs killing sheep?

0:06:21 > 0:06:26- First, try and call the dog or dogs - away from the sheep.

0:06:26 > 0:06:28- Report it to the police...

0:06:29 > 0:06:34- ..and if the dog owner is present...

0:06:34 > 0:06:40- ..allow the owner to recall the dog - and put it on a lead.

0:06:41 > 0:06:47- If the owner isn't present - and you can't recall the dog...

0:06:48 > 0:06:50- ..the farmer has a right - to shoot the dog.

0:06:51 > 0:06:55- They must report it to the police - within 48 hours.

0:06:57 > 0:07:00- Have you learnt any lessons - as a result of this?

0:07:01 > 0:07:03- Yes, to stand firm.

0:07:03 > 0:07:07- I went through the proper procedures - with the police.

0:07:07 > 0:07:10- My neighbour has had to install - a high fence...

0:07:10 > 0:07:14- ..and she has to keep them - under control on her own farm.

0:07:15 > 0:07:17- We work so hard during lambing.

0:07:18 > 0:07:22- There are enough problems - with lambing as it is...

0:07:22 > 0:07:25- ..without having to face - something like this.

0:07:26 > 0:07:28- It's the worst experience I've had.

0:07:33 > 0:07:39- In 2014, Ffermio visited Huw Owen - at Garthmyn Isaf near Llanrwst.

0:07:39 > 0:07:43- At the time, he had sheep - and a new biomass system here.

0:07:43 > 0:07:47- Since then, - there have been many changes.

0:07:47 > 0:07:50- The sheep - have been replaced with trees.

0:07:51 > 0:07:55- Today, Farming Connect - have organised an open day...

0:07:55 > 0:07:58- ..to show the developments - on the farm...

0:07:58 > 0:08:03- ..including three new burners - and a plantation of 900 trees.

0:08:04 > 0:08:06- We've moved on.

0:08:06 > 0:08:08- We've spent a lot.

0:08:08 > 0:08:15- Recently, we installed CHP - - combined heat and power.

0:08:16 > 0:08:20- That's taken up a lot of work - in the business...

0:08:20 > 0:08:23- ..but in terms - of the biomass business...

0:08:23 > 0:08:25- ..which we started a while ago...

0:08:26 > 0:08:28- ..it all happened so quickly...

0:08:28 > 0:08:31- ..and there was such a demand - for woodchip...

0:08:32 > 0:08:35- ..and a quality of woodchip - that we could sell...

0:08:35 > 0:08:40- ..it helped the business develop - to where it is today.

0:08:40 > 0:08:45- When we started, we didn't have - any customers wanting woodchip.

0:08:45 > 0:08:48- We had an open day - over three years ago.

0:08:48 > 0:08:51- From that day, - we now have 60 customers.

0:08:52 > 0:08:59- You dry the woodchips and - you're supplying the National Grid.

0:08:59 > 0:09:01- It's a win-win situation.

0:09:01 > 0:09:04- Yes. We have the Mus-Max chipper.

0:09:04 > 0:09:11- We can provide a good quality chip - to run the system...

0:09:11 > 0:09:14- ..and the system - is quite technical to run...

0:09:14 > 0:09:17- ..but when it works, - it's very effective.

0:09:17 > 0:09:20- We have a lot of heat - to dry the woodchip...

0:09:20 > 0:09:23- ..down to 10%.

0:09:23 > 0:09:27- During that process, - we generate the electricity to sell.

0:09:32 > 0:09:34- When we completed the research...

0:09:34 > 0:09:36- ..someone visited the farm...

0:09:37 > 0:09:40- ..to determine - the traceability of the wood...

0:09:40 > 0:09:44- ..to make sure we were heading - in the right direction.

0:09:44 > 0:09:47- He said that 90% of what he saw - around here was trees.

0:09:48 > 0:09:51- He said we were in a good position - to get trees...

0:09:51 > 0:09:55- ..either through - Natural Resources Wales...

0:09:55 > 0:10:01- ..or from farms - that had woodlands on their farms.

0:10:01 > 0:10:09- By doing that, we've added value - to the wood we've been given.

0:10:09 > 0:10:12- There is a plentiful local supply...

0:10:12 > 0:10:15- ..and we can employ - a lot of local workers.

0:10:15 > 0:10:17- How much money have you invested?

0:10:17 > 0:10:21- How much money have you invested?- - It's getting close to 2m.

0:10:22 > 0:10:23- Are you sweating?

0:10:23 > 0:10:25- Are you sweating?- - There's no point.

0:10:25 > 0:10:28- Whoever installs - these heating systems...

0:10:29 > 0:10:33- ..the Government will give them - a payment for the next 20 years.

0:10:33 > 0:10:36- That's one of the things - we researched.

0:10:36 > 0:10:40- As long as we supply the correct - fuel to them, the woodchip...

0:10:41 > 0:10:43- ..we have a customer for 20 years.

0:10:43 > 0:10:47- We're looking at the business - in terms of Carwyn.

0:10:48 > 0:10:50- He's 18 years old. He has a future.

0:10:55 > 0:10:59- This is quite unique - very few - people do this in North Wales.

0:11:00 > 0:11:04- Geraint Jones from Farming Connect - organised today's event.

0:11:04 > 0:11:09- Today's event shows how Huw Owen - has developed the business.

0:11:09 > 0:11:12- It's grown to where it is today...

0:11:12 > 0:11:17- ..with all the processes that have - happened in light of that...

0:11:17 > 0:11:21- ..in terms of buying the wood, - processing it...

0:11:22 > 0:11:25- ..and selling the wood at the end.

0:11:25 > 0:11:30- Huw has diversified - into the fuel and energy industry...

0:11:31 > 0:11:35- ..with his power and energy units.

0:11:35 > 0:11:40- We're looking at what comes in - locally in terms of fuel.

0:11:40 > 0:11:44- We can use local wood - which helps the local economy.

0:11:46 > 0:11:51- It improves the business - in terms of its own economy.

0:11:51 > 0:11:57- It's important to look ahead - and plan ahead.

0:11:57 > 0:12:00- These are areas Farming Connect - are investigating...

0:12:00 > 0:12:02- ..by giving businesses - the correct advice...

0:12:03 > 0:12:07- ..and getting suitable people in - to give the correct advice...

0:12:07 > 0:12:10- ..to allow the business - to survive and grow.

0:12:11 > 0:12:15- It's been very exciting watching Huw - develop over the past few years...

0:12:16 > 0:12:19- ..and seeing where he'll go - in the future.

0:12:19 > 0:12:23- After a day of listening and seeing, - what are people's impressions?

0:12:24 > 0:12:28- We learnt that you can do something - else apart from farming the land.

0:12:29 > 0:12:33- You can sell wood - and do other things with it.

0:12:33 > 0:12:39- It's been a real eye opener - seeing something new...

0:12:40 > 0:12:44- ..and farm diversification.

0:12:45 > 0:12:47- It's been well worth seeing.

0:12:47 > 0:12:50- He's spent his money very wisely.

0:12:51 > 0:12:53- I hope he's very successful.

0:12:57 > 0:12:59- That's all for now.

0:12:59 > 0:13:01- Join us after the break...

0:13:01 > 0:13:05- ..when Alun joins a different breed - of cattle in Ponterwyd.

0:13:05 > 0:13:07- See you soon.

0:13:07 > 0:13:07- .

0:13:12 > 0:13:12- Subtitles

0:13:12 > 0:13:14- Subtitles- - Subtitles

0:13:17 > 0:13:22- Traditionally, the Welsh Black - is seen grazing on Welsh uplands.

0:13:22 > 0:13:26- In the mountains around Ponterwyd - near Aberystwyth...

0:13:26 > 0:13:29- ..Alun's discovered - a different breed of cattle.

0:13:33 > 0:13:37- Almost ten years ago, - I visited Lle'r-neuaddau Farm...

0:13:38 > 0:13:40- ..to see an unique experiment.

0:13:41 > 0:13:44- Crossing a Scottish Highland cow - with a Shorthorn...

0:13:45 > 0:13:47- ..to create a hardy animal...

0:13:47 > 0:13:50- ..which can turn poor moorland - into good quality meat.

0:13:51 > 0:13:53- Has the experiment succeeded?

0:13:56 > 0:14:00- Christopher Evans - is the 1,500-acre farm's tenant.

0:14:00 > 0:14:04- Day by day, Rheinallt Jones - is the manager of the holding.

0:14:06 > 0:14:10- When I last visited the farm, - your father managed the herd.

0:14:12 > 0:14:15- It was a new venture, an experiment.

0:14:15 > 0:14:18- Have things turned out - as you expected?

0:14:18 > 0:14:22- Back, many years ago, Christopher - Evans kept a herd of Welsh Blacks.

0:14:22 > 0:14:26- We wanted a breed that could live - out here in the winter...

0:14:26 > 0:14:29- ..so we chose the Highland cattle.

0:14:29 > 0:14:31- It was a gamble right at the outset.

0:14:32 > 0:14:36- Of course. No-one had kept them - in this area before.

0:14:36 > 0:14:41- If we'd taken them to Dolgellau - mart, no-one would have wanted them!

0:14:41 > 0:14:44- They've worked out well for us.

0:14:44 > 0:14:49- How are they different, - or better, than other breeds?

0:14:50 > 0:14:53- The emphasis for us - was finding an animal...

0:14:53 > 0:14:57- ..that could live here - during the winter without silage...

0:14:57 > 0:15:01- ..by grazing on the moorland, - the rubbish on this pasture!

0:15:01 > 0:15:06- By doing so, they provided - better pasture for the sheep.

0:15:06 > 0:15:08- It's a very special breed.

0:15:08 > 0:15:11- What do you do in terms of selling?

0:15:11 > 0:15:16- From what I've seen, the females are - good animals to sell for breeding.

0:15:17 > 0:15:21- What about the males? - Where's your target?

0:15:21 > 0:15:24- We're very lucky - with the British Shorthorn.

0:15:24 > 0:15:29- Morrisons are heavily promoting the - breed and there's a market for them.

0:15:29 > 0:15:33- We're carrying on breeding them, - we receive a fair price per kilo.

0:15:34 > 0:15:40- We manage to produce male calves - weighing 400kgs within 12 months.

0:15:41 > 0:15:45- On the whole, - the cattle are a quiet breed.

0:15:46 > 0:15:48- I don't regard them - as wild cattle...

0:15:48 > 0:15:51- ..unless they've just - produced a calf.

0:15:52 > 0:15:54- They're very maternal - for about a week.

0:15:55 > 0:15:58- That maternal instinct - is very important.

0:15:58 > 0:16:02- Since joining the Glastir scheme - three years ago...

0:16:02 > 0:16:06- ..the farm's stocking levels - have fallen by 45%...

0:16:06 > 0:16:10- ..to conform with the - scheme's strict grazing conditions.

0:16:10 > 0:16:14- How have these changes - affected the cattle?

0:16:14 > 0:16:21- Why are these cattle so suitable - to the Glastir scheme?

0:16:21 > 0:16:26- It started when we joined the - Tir Gofal scheme about 10 years ago.

0:16:27 > 0:16:31- Once we started grazing this land, - the curlew returned.

0:16:31 > 0:16:34- It had become very rare - in this area.

0:16:34 > 0:16:38- We returned to organic farming - after keeping cattle...

0:16:38 > 0:16:41- ..and the curlew numbers - started to fall.

0:16:41 > 0:16:46- Once we started keeping cattle here - again, the curlew returned.

0:16:46 > 0:16:50- That's what we're doing - with the Glastir scheme...

0:16:50 > 0:16:52- ..especially in this area.

0:16:52 > 0:16:54- We topped up about a quarter - of that field...

0:16:55 > 0:16:59- ..and they believe that helps - the curlew return stronger.

0:16:59 > 0:17:03- There's a variety - green patches, - patches with strong growth...

0:17:04 > 0:17:09- ..and patches where the cattle's - hoof prints are visible.

0:17:09 > 0:17:11- That helps with the drainage.

0:17:12 > 0:17:18- You'll also notice that around the - cowpats, the grass is even greener.

0:17:18 > 0:17:22- Sheep and insects - are attracted to those areas.

0:17:22 > 0:17:25- The sheep enjoy grazing - where cattle have been.

0:17:26 > 0:17:28- When we look into the distance...

0:17:29 > 0:17:32- ..we can only see one colour - in some areas.

0:17:33 > 0:17:35- It's molinia grass.

0:17:35 > 0:17:39- That happens - when no grazing takes place.

0:17:39 > 0:17:43- No cattle or sheep graze - on that land right now.

0:17:43 > 0:17:46- Over the years, - the molinia grows higher...

0:17:47 > 0:17:49- ..until you can't walk through it.

0:17:49 > 0:17:51- That's very significant.

0:17:52 > 0:17:57- People who enjoy this landscape - won't be able to enjoy it.

0:17:57 > 0:18:01- You can see the summit of Pumlumon - in front of us.

0:18:01 > 0:18:05- Walkers trying to reach the top - can't walk through this landscape.

0:18:08 > 0:18:11- This is what attracts them - to this area.

0:18:11 > 0:18:14- Something has to be done about it - right now.

0:18:15 > 0:18:19- As a result of Glastir's conditions - to reduce stock numbers...

0:18:20 > 0:18:24- ..Christopher Evans established - a pedigree Shorthorn herd.

0:18:26 > 0:18:30- We have eight pure-bred cows.

0:18:30 > 0:18:34- Christopher has joined the society.

0:18:34 > 0:18:38- He likes the breed - and the people who keep them.

0:18:38 > 0:18:40- That's why he chose them.

0:18:40 > 0:18:44- We keep the bull - to cross with the Highlands.

0:18:45 > 0:18:47- They all fit in together.

0:18:47 > 0:18:48- It's a huge bull.

0:18:48 > 0:18:53- I think the world of it. It'll be - sold at Stoneleigh on Saturday.

0:18:53 > 0:18:55- I'll miss it when it goes.

0:18:55 > 0:18:58- I don't think we'll see one - like it for years.

0:18:58 > 0:19:00- You could breed one yourself.

0:19:00 > 0:19:04- We've kept one from it this year. - It's about eight months old.

0:19:04 > 0:19:06- In terms of efficiency...

0:19:07 > 0:19:13- ..I take it - you can maximise your income.

0:19:13 > 0:19:17- They're cheap to keep - but they can command good prices.

0:19:17 > 0:19:22- They don't go without when they're - in the shed during the winter.

0:19:22 > 0:19:27- They are pushed well but they've - done the hard work over the summer.

0:19:27 > 0:19:31- They achieve a certain quality.

0:19:31 > 0:19:34- On the pasture, - they become good animals.

0:19:35 > 0:19:38- We just try and improve that - and push them.

0:19:38 > 0:19:41- That's what the market demands.

0:19:41 > 0:19:45- There's no point just selling - anything - quality is crucial.

0:19:45 > 0:19:48- That works for us - with the Highland Shorthorn cross.

0:19:50 > 0:19:54- Over the past two years, - detailed records have been kept...

0:19:54 > 0:19:58- ..about the herd's efficiency which - is now pivotal to the business.

0:19:59 > 0:20:04- I do like to keep the figures - because I'm not here all the time.

0:20:04 > 0:20:07- It's a measurement system, really.

0:20:07 > 0:20:12- I like to see what weight they - put on over a six-month period.

0:20:12 > 0:20:14- You can monitor them that way.

0:20:15 > 0:20:18- Rheinallt will monitor them - by looking at them!

0:20:19 > 0:20:23- He's here all the time - but that's the way I like to do it.

0:20:23 > 0:20:27- How important is Rheinallt in - the process of making this job work?

0:20:28 > 0:20:32- Before Rheinallt was his father. - He was here for 20 years.

0:20:32 > 0:20:36- Without those two, we wouldn't have - the success that we've got.

0:20:36 > 0:20:42- A good staff, a good shepherd is - important - you can't do without it.

0:20:42 > 0:20:47- They understand the animals and - get the best out of the animals.

0:20:49 > 0:20:53- This was an experiment 10 years ago. - The experiment has worked.

0:20:53 > 0:20:55- I think it's worked.

0:20:55 > 0:21:01- On a hill farm like this, animals - need rough grassland to graze.

0:21:01 > 0:21:06- On land such as this, - the Highland breed is well suited.

0:21:09 > 0:21:13- Of course, if you're not here, - the cattle aren't here.

0:21:13 > 0:21:18- The Government needs to find a way - to keep us on these mountains.

0:21:18 > 0:21:23- Whatever schemes exist after Brexit, - whatever comes...

0:21:23 > 0:21:28- ..there must be a future - on the mountains.

0:21:31 > 0:21:36- Finally, Wales' chief veterinary - officer, Christianne Glossop...

0:21:36 > 0:21:41- ..recently walked with some - of her friends and colleagues...

0:21:41 > 0:21:43- ..on a special journey.

0:21:47 > 0:21:49- The British Cattle - Veterinary Association...

0:21:49 > 0:21:52- ..is celebrating 50 years this year.

0:21:52 > 0:21:57- There is a huge fundraising effort - going on for the charity Send A Cow.

0:21:57 > 0:22:00- We wanted to think - of what we could do here in Wales...

0:22:00 > 0:22:05- ..that was special and unique - and would bring everyone together.

0:22:05 > 0:22:10- We decided to walk across the - country from Anchor to Aberystwyth.

0:22:10 > 0:22:17- We've been walking for two days, - each day around 25 miles or so.

0:22:17 > 0:22:22- The money that we're raising is - going to produce a herd of cattle...

0:22:22 > 0:22:24- ..for Africa.

0:22:24 > 0:22:26- We've had a great day.

0:22:26 > 0:22:32- We walked from the Severn river - across the Cambrian mountains.

0:22:32 > 0:22:36- We started at 7.00am.

0:22:36 > 0:22:39- We had poor weather - until we reached Pumlumon.

0:22:41 > 0:22:45- We walked down - to Nant-y-Moch reservoir.

0:22:46 > 0:22:50- We had a wonderful walk - past Craig-y-Pistyll.

0:22:54 > 0:22:56- I just felt that as we started - in England...

0:22:57 > 0:22:59- ..we needed to show - we'd really crossed Wales.

0:23:00 > 0:23:04- I don't know where the edge is - but it's got to be out there.

0:23:04 > 0:23:07- To stop at the water's edge - wasn't completing the job!

0:23:11 > 0:23:14- We made it. What a winning team.

0:23:14 > 0:23:17- The most amazing people - and I'm in tears.

0:23:17 > 0:23:21- We did it. We've walked across - the beautiful country of Wales.

0:23:25 > 0:23:29- A great effort - by Christianne Glossop and the gang.

0:23:29 > 0:23:33- That's all for this week. - Until next time, cheerio.
