Reuben: Life In The Dales

It's mid-summer and Reuben has plans to expand his business by training up his work force. So, 17-year-old Sarah gets put in the driving seat so she can operate more of their heavy plant machinery.

It's early autumn and as wet weather wreaks havoc in the Dales, Reuben and Sarah help their community in a crisis. Stonemason Pete Roe asks the pair to lend a hand repairing a 200-year-old drain which has collapsed under the force of rainfall.

The friends set sail for France on Reuben's first ever holiday abroad. Tommy gets hold of a GoPro to capture the milestone adventure as the three mates start their long drive from the Dales to Dover in Reuben's second-hand Land Rover.

Reuben plans to sell some of his old machinery at a local auction, but his vintage tractor refuses to start. Sarah upcycles an old plough, and Reuben and Tommy weld together a cow scraper.

It's winter and there are problems aplenty for Reuben and his pals. From a plumbing project that turns into a disaster to Reuben's digger cracking through tarmac at a renovation site.

It's summer in the Dales and Reuben prepares land around a stone barn in Cumbria, so homeowner John can start major renovation works. But while excavating soil piled against the house, Reuben uncovers the building's crumbling foundations.
