It is an important moment for the youngster as Emma will only train sheepdogs that show true potential. Later, Emma and Ewan find out the fate of their tenancy.\n\nIn the Lake District, Matt and Dani Blair are dealing with an unexpected new arrival - the first calf to be born on their new farm has arrived three months early. When the young calf has trouble feeding from his mum, young parents to be Matt and Dani step in to help.\n\nOn Little Rowater Farm in Aberdeenshire, new entrant farmers Isla and George French are concerned about deer calf 166 as he is showing signs of being bullied by the rest of the herd.
