The remote Scottish island where two people live alongside 600 seaweed-eating sheep

My parents have been farming sheep on a remote Scottish island for nearly 50 years. For half that time, they’ve had a flock of North Ronaldsays, or Rollies, an ancient breed of seaweed-eating sheep native to the Orkney Islands. I took a sabbatical from my job as a TV news reporter to help for four months and decided to film a documentary series about their unique lifestyle while I was there. In this episode, mum returns to the island by plane after having to leave dad and I alone for 10 days, and then we get on with choosing rams for next year. If you’d like to support the creation of future videos, please consider buying me a coffee ❤ My parents’ website features all the products they make from our sheep, check it out here: Please subscribe for future episodes!
