The team explore Hampshire. Tom Heap investigates the potential of tidal power in the UK.

Matt Baker and Shauna Lowry are in Hampshire, Charlotte Smith is at London Fashion Week and Tom Heap investigates the potential of tidal power in the UK.

Matt Baker and Shauna Lowry are in Hampshire. 

Matt meets the farmers who started with nothing more than a handbook and an empty field. Four years on, their farm is thriving. Shauna explores the New Forest and meets the ponies, donkeys and cattle that graze freely on this land. The number of road accidents involving animals here is high, so measures are being put in place to prevent them, as Shauna discovers. 

Helen Skelton meets world champion darts player Scott Mitchell. He is the son of a farmer and with his winnings vowed to buy his dad a new tractor. Charlotte Smith is at London Fashion Week discovering the links between farming and fashion. She also visits a farm where rabbits are kept for their wool. Adam Henson visits a nature reserve where three of his Exmoor ponies are starting a new life helping with conservation grazing.

Compared with wind and solar energy, tidal power has barely created a ripple in the UK. But as Tom Heap finds out, that could change dramatically in the years to come if plans to build six new tidal lagoons go ahead.
