It's Liberation Day across the islands, and celebrations are underway to mark the anniversary of their liberation from Nazi occupation. On Jersey, cider and sausage producers Richard and Sarah Matlock pitch up to sell their produce. This is one of the most important dates in their calendar - and with 600 sausages to shift - they're banking on it being a good one.

On Guernsey, tearoom owner Robert shuts up shop to lead the island's Liberation Day celebration with a military vehicle cavalcade. Timing is key for the procession to run smoothly, but will the 80-year-old vehicles be in perfect synchronisation?

Fishing couple, Gabby and Leyton head out to sea to catch mackerel and lobster off Jersey's shores.  They supply locally caught seafood to customers across the island, but their success is dependent on the goodwill of mother nature.  With a weekend stall in St. Aubin they need to catch plenty to keep their loyal customers happy.

On Guernsey, Thai take-way owners Tan and Paul are looking for a taste of Asia. With a craving for produce typically found in her home country of Thailand, Tan grows her own range from her allotment. But when she introduces a hive of bees to help pollinate the garden, she finds her queen may have buzzed off.

And passionate animal rescue worker Steve is working hard to protect Guernsey's most vulnerable wildlife. He works round the clock to provide care for the island's endangered animals, including over 100 hedgehogs. After months of rehab, he's hoping today is the day that some of his spikey residents can be released back into the great outdoors.
