This week’s sneak peek kicks off in beautiful Kintail in the north-west Highlands.

Marion McGivern chats to Kristin Barrett about her fruitful community initiative.
The Perthshire resident had realised apples from a local tree were going to waste. Thanks to her efforts, the community are sharing the fruit, which they leave in handmade cloth bags around the town.
The apples have also been pressed to make juice, and the leftover pulp is used as compost.
