As the season gets underway, she meets a group of women mixing glamour with game shooting. James Wong is also in the Pennines. He's discovering how planting trees is helping to train soldiers and increase the UK's woodland cover. Elsewhere, with bovine TB in England at its highest level in decades, the government is proposing killing badgers as a solution. If a cull goes ahead, how will it work in practice and what impact it will have - Tom Heap investigates. Down on the farm, Adam is in search of a new sheepdog.
