2 People vs. 600 Seaweed-Eating Sheep on a Remote Island

My parents have been farming sheep on a remote Scottish island for nearly 50 years. For half that time, they've had a flock of North Ronaldsays, or Rollies, an ancient breed of seaweed-eating sheep native to the Orkney Islands. I took a sabbatical from my job as a TV news reporter to help for four months and decided to film a documentary series about their unique lifestyle while I was there. In this episode, mum returns to the island by plane after having to leave dad and I alone for 10 days, and then we get on with choosing rams for next year.
