In the fourth episode of this unique knockout competition, the first round of opening heats reaches its climax. The last two contenders battle it out with their four legged friends as they enter the Flockstars’ showground, attempting to guide a flock of sheep around the trialling course in the quickest time and qualify for a place in the semi-finals.
