Kate travels around the Isle of Barra where she meets the locals who tell her a bit about the history of the place, such as where the island got its name. She chats with Angus Brendan MacNeil about the Annie Jane, an emigrant ship that went on the rocks in 1853. Kate also meets up with Lisa MacNeil to help her collect cockles on the airport beach, which they then decide to cook.
Kate learns about the history of the little island of Hellisay from folklorist and historian Calum MacNeil and is more than a little unnerved when he tells her a story about a ghost who only appears to true MacLeods! She then finishes her trip south by visiting the once inhabited island of Mingulay and Barra Head.
