Just had time to catch up and watch with the family,great TV. Great location Emma has moved to but struggling to see how it would pay. Hope the run another series possible look back on how others are getting on.
Just wondering why you’d think it would be a struggle to make it pay?

Joyce Campbell seems determined to wear a crash helmet - not just on the bike, which is dangerous enough, but even in the steading when she was separating cows and calves. That's not only downright dangerous, it's a stupid thing to do.

The helmet has the ''LOGIC' name prominently displayed. If I was more cynical......................................

As tenants ourselves I just couldn't see enough busines output, massive step up for them. Wish them best of luck, really nice couple. I struggle to see how suckler/sheep make it pay, let alone paying rent.
I agree, plus the added cost and hassle of getting stock on and off the island.
