Tha Fraoch Nic an Deòir a'leantainn oirre le a cuairt tro na h-eileanan, an-diugh a'tadhal air Giogha an iar air Ceanntìre. Tha i a'cluinntinn bho Willie McSporran ciamar a chaidh leis an eilean bhon a cheannaich a'choimhearsnachd e ann an 2002.

Tha i ag ionnsachadh cho cudromach sa tha e do choimhearsnachdan air eileanan beaga, feum a dhèanamh de stòras nàdair: tha i a'coimhead na 'Mnathan-uasal a'dannsa' - na trì innealan-gaoithe a tha a'dèanamh dealain, prìomh stèidh ann an eaconomaidh an eilein.

Tha i a'gabhail chuairt tro ghàrraidhean an Achaidh Mhòir, agus a'coimhead gnothachas ùr - tuath a tha ag àrach bhradan-leathann gu nàdarra agus gan reic. On a tha i fhèin na neach-ealain, tha an gailearaidh aig Henri NicAmhlaidh gu mòr ri a càil, mus gabh an dithis aca a-mach a choimhead cuairidh as an robh clach airson bràthan ga chladhach.

Cook and artist Heather Dewar continues her tour of the islands and visits the Isle of Gigha, off the west coast of the Kintyre peninsula. Here she meets Willie McSporran who tells her how the island has fared under community ownership since the famous buy-out of 2002.

Heather learns how important harnessing nature's natural resources can be for small island communities, as she is shown the three wind turbines on the island - the Dancing Ladies - which generate electricity and are vital to the island's economy.

Heather has a look around the famous Achamore gardens and is shown one of Gigha's newest ventures - a business producing and selling organically reared halibut. And Heather gets to indulge her artistic side when Henri Macaulay gives her a tour of her art gallery, before the pair take a walk out to the site of an ancient quern stone quarry.
