Màiri Anna NicUalraig agus Liusaidh Cooke – An Còcaire Fiadhain – a’ rùrachd airson tairbheartas nàdair. Tha Màiri Anna a’ siubhal le a caraid Ruairidh MacIlleathain air thòir air allt cho ainmeil sa th’ ann ann an dualchas nan Gàidheal – Allt an t-Siùcair aig Alasdair Mac Mhaighstir Alasdair, bàrd clìuteach na 18mh linn. Tha iad a’ coiseachd a-mach bho èirigh an uillt gu cladach feuch dè tha fhathast a’ fàs air na bruaichean an coimeas ri sealladh a’ bhàird air sgìre a bha beartach an nàdar. Agus tha Liusaidh a’ coimhead air aon dhe na rudan a tha nochdadh san dàn – na ròsan – agus mar a ghabhas an cleachdadh airson bidhe a tha math agus math dhuit.

Mary Ann Kennedy and Lucy Cooke – The Wild Cooke – forage for nature’s bounty. Mary Ann travels with her friend Roddy MacLean in search of one of the most famous streams in Gaelic culture – the Sugar Brook that was celebrated by the 18thC poet Alexander MacDonald. They journey from source to shore to see what still grows there in comparison to the richness of nature described by the poet at the time. And Lucy looks at one of the elements celebrated in the poem – the roses – and how their fruit can be processed.
