Filming took place at one of the locks of the Huddersfield Broad Canal.
The Glory Hole	8 January	While out in the hills one day, Foggy sees a hole in the road that reminds him of a World War II slit trench.

Adopted by a Stray	15 January	The trio meet Mr Broadbent, who is giving up everything to find the wilderness. He gives the trio his van, but they don't expect Mrs Broadbent to come with it.	Guest appearances of Geoffrey Bayldon and Emily Perry as Mr and Mrs Broadbent.
