2026: 1. 50th Anniversary Special
A special episode to celebrate Landward’s 50th anniversary. Dougie takes a long walk through the landscape and through five decades of this important rural affairs series. He revisits stories from the archives, revealing huge changes in the Scottish countryside.\n\nThe Landward cameras documented vanishing ways of life and key moments, from devastating animal disease outbreaks to historic land buyouts and extreme weather events. We learn that what began as ‘Scotland’s farming programme’ became a broader reflection of all aspects of living and working in rural Scotland.\n\nDougie meets up with past and present members of the Landward team as they share their best moments from working on the programme.
