Woodworkers compete in the Borders to turn freshly felled timber into something special.


Can the woodworkers keep their cool as they compete under the blazing sun trying to transform their freshly felled timber into something spectacular in the Scottish Borders?

Comedian and farmer Jim Smith presents as teams of woodworkers travel the length and breadth of Scotland, visiting a different woodland each episode as they bid to impress the local judge. Visiting some of Scotland’s most magnificent woodlands, the teams cut, craft, create and camp in the great outdoors as they battle against the clock, their opponents and mother nature to lay claim to the Golden Axe.

In this episode, team captains Linzi and Vicente each hope to lead their team to victory among the trees at Glenlude in the Scottish Borders. The teams are challenged to turn their felled spruce into something that will assist the many groups that are helping to rewild these woodlands. However, as the experts struggle with their timber and the sun beats down, can the teams stand the blistering heat as they look to shave, cut and fashion their timber into something spectacular and win over today’s judge?

Which team will emerge from the sawdust, to claim victory and lift the golden axe for the first time?
