A' chiad latha dhen Fharpais Eadar-nàiseanta agus tha an luchd-lìbhrigidh Catriona Nic a' PhÌ agus Dòmhnall MacSuain ann an Crìochan na h-Alba, a' toirt thugaibh a' chuid as fheàrr dhen fharpais.

Le Farpais Nàiseanta na h-Alba deiseil, anns a' phrògram an t-seachdain seo, tha sinn a' tionndadh aire chun na farpais Eadar-nàiseanta. Air aoigheachd an Alba am-bliadhna, thathas ga chumail air cùrsa air leth ann am pàirc shònraichte faisg air Moffat. Agus tha an raon na dhùbhlan, fiùs dhan fheadhainn as fheàrr de na farpaisich! Aig toiseach-tòiseachaidh, Sasannach Ricky Hutchinson le Sweep, a tha a' ruith aig ìre glè mhath tràth anns an fharpais. An urrainn dha fuireach air thoiseach, no an tig na Cuimrich, na h-Albannaich agus na h-Èireannaich air ais air?

Air falbh bhon raon, tha sinn a' gabhail cothrom coinneachadh ri buill sgioba eadar-nàiseanta na h-Alba. Tha sinn a' còmhradh ri Iain MacMhaoilein a tha a' nochdadh anns an sgioba na h-Alba airson a' chiad uair.

Tha sinn cuideachd a' cur barrachd eòlais air sgioba na Cuimrigh an uair a tha sinn a' gabhail sgrìob dhan Chuimrigh chun na farpais Nàiseanta an sin agus a' fhaicinn mar a ghlèidh Aled Owen agus Cap an tiotal mar Sgiobair na Cuimrigh.

It's day one of the International Sheepdog Trials, and presenters Catriona MacPhee and Donald MacSween are in the Scottish Borders to bring you the highlights.

With the Scottish National competition complete, in this programme we turn our attentions to the International competition. Hosted in Scotland, it is being held on a course set over an incredible 146-acre field near Moffat. A challenge for even the most experienced of handlers!

Off the field, we take some time to meet members of the Scottish International team. We speak to Ian McMillan, who is making his competitive debut for the Scots. We also get to know the Welsh team better when Evelyn Coull travels to Wales to attend the Welsh National and witness Aled
Owen and Cap secure the title of Welsh Captain.
