It's Easter week and the Rev Richard lends a hand in Stanley's only bakery putting the finishing touches to the hot cross buns. Meanwhile, over on West Falkland - the other main island - farmer Critta Lee is putting in some last-minute practice with his sheep dogs Duke and Bitzer. He's off to the local inter-island sheep dog trials, and after coming second last year he has high hopes of carrying off the big prize.

Back on the East Island, the Falklands' resident taxidermist and animal artist Steve Massam is putting the finishing touches to his first attempt of a human sculpture - a bronze bust of Margaret Thatcher.

And just in time for Easter, entrepreneur Alan Steen rushes through the snow to the airport to pick up 1,200 newborn baby chicks that have been flown in from the UK. Show less
