Presenter, comedian and farmer Jim Smith the teams travel the length and breadth of Scotland, visiting a different woodland each episode, as they bid to impress the local judge. Visiting some of Scotland's most magnificent woodlands the teams cut, craft, create and camp in the great outdoors. The woodchips fly as the experts battle against the clock, their opponents and mother nature. Both items will remain in the woodlands but when the clock runs out and the sawdust settles only one team can claim victory, and lift the coveted golden axe. The teams travel the length and breadth of Scotland, visiting a different woodland each episode, as they bid to impress the local judge. Using wood felled as part of the woodlands' management plans, the experts wrestle this freshly cut timber, which can be notoriously tricky to work with. As they work on their creations the teams face everything the Scottish climate can throw at them from scorching sun in the Borders and howling winds on the North Coast to torrential rain on the Inner Hebrides. Today, team captains Linzi and Vicente each hope to lead their team to victory amongst the trees at Glenlude in the Scottish Borders. The teams are challenged to turn their felled spruce into something that will assist the many groups that are helping to rewild these woodlands. But as the experts struggle with their timber and the sun beats down, can the teams stand the blistering heat as they look to shave, cut and fashion their timber into something spectacular and win over today's judge? Which team will emerge from the sawdust, to claim victory and lift the golden axe for the first time?
