It's day one of the International Sheep Dog Trial and presenters Catriona MacPhee and Donald MacSween are in Aldsworth in the Cotswolds to bring you the best of the action from the contest.

With the Scottish National competition complete, we turn our attention to the international event, hosted at Lodge Park in Gloucestershire. Among the competitors are Welsh handler Nigel Watkins and his dog Alex, who make a great start to the competition.

We also speak to English president and host of the year's International Trial, Dick Roper, to find out what makes this field ideal for a competition of this size. We also take a trip to a remote part of Northumberland to meet handler Emma Gray. She tells us what it's like to be a young shepherdess and the joys of training her 20 dogs.
