Scotland boasts some of the brightest and longest days in Europe: at this special time the landscape comes alive with wildlife, with hours of magical light allowing us to celebrate and engage with the landscape like no other time of year. Visitors from around the world come to Callanish to see the summer solstice: we find out why the stones draw them here, and who erected them 5,000 years ago.
Record-breaking cyclist Mark Beaumont chases the sun along Scotland's north coast, and Catriona Shearer reports live from the Isle of May - a television first - as she monitors the puffin population and their fluffy chicks, known as pufflings.
