In this episode they visit Sligo and Leitrim in Ireland, an area renowned for flute and fiddle traditions. Accompanying Julie and Muireann on this trip are acclaimed piper Dr Angus MacDonald of Glenuig and Linda MacLeod, the young singer steeped in the musical traditions of her native North Uist. Local singer Niamh Farrell teaches Linda and Julie the beautiful ballad Eileanóir Na Rún and Linda returns the favour by sharing songs with Muireann, Niamh and Julie. For Dr Angus, a highlight of the visit to the north west of Ireland comes when he travels to Kiltyclogher and meets patriarch of a musical dynasty, Ben Lennon, and accompanies his brother Charlie Lennon and son, Brian, on a set of tunes. Mary McPartlan sings a favourite song with Julie, about Drumkeeran, where generations of her family lived and they visit Mary's favourite location on earth, on the family farm. The episode culminates in a session at folk music bar where local musical legend Carmel Gunning joins in the assembled cast.
