About this programme

Matt Baker gets a unique perspective of the Wirral peninsula on Hilbre Island, a sanctuary for thousands of birds, and Ellie Harrison explores the area's industrial past and finds out how it is being used in the present day. John Craven travels to Cumbria to meet people who were affected by the outbreak of foot-and-mouth disease 10 years ago, and Adam Henson counts the cost of a harsh winter on his farm.
