Continuing the conversation about rural Scotland, Annie and Jenny speak to Jimmy about his experience of being a blacksmith in 1950. They learn some very peculiar stories of blacksmiths from legends, including encounters with mischievous kelpies, bootlace-tying rhymes and the magic of iron. A surreal and enticing examination of the role of the village blacksmith.
