Familiar farmyard friends can be just as unpredictable as their wild animal counterparts; life on the farm is just as complex as that on the Serengeti; over the course of a year, and across the seasons, the secret lives of farm animals are revealed.
EPISODE 1
Leaping into Life
Spring is in the air and life on the farm is bursting out everywhere, as twin lambs Larry and Flora leap for joy in the meadow with the other newborns.
EPISODE 2
Great Escape
Summer days mean the animals get to roam in the open meadows; the Hebridean sheep stage a breakout, giving the sheepdog her first chance at a roundup.
EPISODE 3
Change In The Air
As the leaves change, wild urges grip the animals; Rams Roger and Hamish battle for dominance, while Sally the hen flies the coop for a tour of the farm.
EPISODE 4
Hunkering Down
The farm animals settle for the shortest days of the year; to stave off boredom, the cows enjoy holiday treats and a concert; Sheila is busy with nine piglets.
