Over the past six months, Kate's been learning the skills she needs to become a shepherd while Adam's been travelling the UK to explore the secret life of sheep. Did Kate help pick the right rams for the job? How many lambs will be born? How many will survive? Follow their stories as the series unfolds. Show less
