On this week's episode, Martin and Eleanor decamp to Devon and tell the tale of "The Hairy Hands of Dartmoor."

After a nod to Grasmere's traditional Sports Festival and St Philibert's Day, they bomb down the Atlantic Highway to Devon and explore its history and folklore - from Kents Cavern and the Ottery St Mary Tar Barrel celebrations to tales of Old Crockern, pony-riding faeries, the legends of Crazywell Pool, and much more besides. Then it's time for the main event: Martin's telling of "The Hairy Hands of Dartmoor."
