Anns an dara sreath de "Eileanan Fraoich" tha Fraoch Nic an Deòir à Ìle a' fàgail cofhurtachd a dachaidh airson cuairt tro na h-eileanan. Tha i a' tadhal air Colbhasaidh, Muile, Uibhist a Tuath agus Éirisgeidh, sgìre Stafainn san Eilean Sgitheanach agus fearann na Pàirc ann an Leòdhas.

'Sa phrògram seo tha Fraoch a' cur eòlas air Èirisgeidh anns na h-Eileanan an Iar. Eilean beag le beairteas eachdraidh - ainmeil chan e mhàin chionns gun ann an seo a ràinig am Prionnsa Teàrlach Stiùbhart tìr, ach airson na h-eich a bhuineas dhan eilean. Bi Fraoch a' marcachd - agus a' tachairt air buill Comunn nan Each.

Tha i a'dol a choimhead eaglais an eilein agus a' cluinntinn mun altar annasach dèanta a toiseach bàta. Tha i cuideachd a' gabhail dhan bhan còmhla ris a' phost - an dòigh is fheàrr air eòlas a chur air eilean. Agus cha ghabh a cumail as a bhùth far a bheil geansaidhean Èirisgeidh gan reic.

In this, the second series of Eileanan Fraoich, Islay-born Heather Dewar leaves the familiarity of home to embark on her own personal island odyssey. She visits Colonsay, Mull, North Uist and Eriskay and explores the communities of Staffin in Skye and South Lochs in Lewis.

In this programme Heather explores Eriskay in the Outer Hebrides. This small island is steeped in history and famed for not only being the landing place of Bonnie Prince Charlie in 1745 but also for its indigenous Eriskay ponies. Heather meets members of the Eriskay Pony Society and even gets to ride one of these rare-breed ponies.

She visits the island's church and learns about its unusual altar made from the bow of a lifeboat, and catches a lift in the post van with local postman - the best way to see and get to know an island community. She also visits the local shop which sells the unique Eriskay jersey.
