Chapter 1: Spring
Filmed over a year across the Sperrins in mid-Ulster, the series starts with spring. Beneath dark skies, bogs burst into life. In the foothills, locals work to protect heritage.
Narrated by Colin Morgan, Chronicles of the Sperrins follows a year in the Sperrin mountains that span 40 miles across mid-Ulster. Featuring stories from the foothills to the peaks, we meet people whose lives are rooted in nature and the seasons that shape it.
The programme begins at Butterlope Farm, a traditional hill farm owned by Annie and Vinnie Mullan and run by their team of social farmers. A sure sign that spring has officially arrived is when planting and lambing begins.
At Mullaghcarn, Ulster wildlife peatland officer Rory battles the weather as conservation efforts are underway to restore this vital bogland.
Down in Gortin Glen Forest Park, walking guide Sean Harpur and his guide dog Bennie are on their daily walk, exploring the woodland鈥檚 hidden history.
