The episode also follows Cat and Frank, two environmental officers who are faced with numerous challenges – including tackling abusive tenants.

We’ll also meet Michael, a driver who delivers hot meals around the Kingdom.

Nearly 1000 elderly and disabled people from across Fife receive hot meals on a daily basis, stretching Michael as he rushes from delivery to delivery in Cupar and St Andrews.
