Lady Ellen (Sophie Ward) meets a face from the past in Dr Channing (Dominic Mafham)

There's an explosive start to the new series of award-winning BBC One Daytime drama Land Girls as the local military hospital is bombed. At Hoxley Manor Lady Ellen organises the Great Hall into a makeshift hospital with the help of the land girls and is confronted by a face from the past when Dr Channing arrives.

At Pasture Farm, Joyce is still waiting for news of husband John, who is missing in action; and new land girl Iris is befriended by another new arrival at the farm.

After Finch drunkenly drives into Mrs Gulliver's garden and creates havoc, she threatens to tell the police unless he digs up her whole garden. When Martin discovers a gold coin Finch is overjoyed at the lucrative find.

Finally a telegram arrives for Joyce and it's good news: John is alive; but the reunion isn't as Joyce hoped it would be.

Meanwhile, at Connie and Henry's engagement party, Connie is singing when she spots her ex, Danny, watching her. He then disappears, but when Connie returns from the party he is sitting on her bed. Shocked, as her world unravels, she tells him they'll talk tomorrow.

Younger viewers can join Abney and Teal for brand-new island adventures with their friends Neep, Bop and the Poc-Pocs.

On Monday Bop is experimenting with a new kind of bubble. The friends all have a great time playing with Bop's musical creations – until things get a bit too bubbly...

It is a damp and soggy day on the Island in Tuesday's episode, when Abney and Teal have great fun sliding about in the mud. A super soapy bath follows but somehow their foamy water gets into the lake, giving Bop a bit of a surprise.

In Wednesday's episode Abney makes a pot of brilliant porridge, which mysteriously disappears. Where could it have gone?

On Thursday Neep finds a buzzing thing. It buzzes all over the Island causing all kinds of mischief and Abney, Teal and the Poc-Pocs go to see what the excitement is all about.

Teal wants to build something as big as the moon in Friday's episode. Abney isn't sure how big the moon is exactly, so they decide to build a rocket and go there to find out.
