In the Highlands and Islands, Calum explores the caves of Assynt, a Unesco global geopark, before travelling north to Orkney where there is a wealth of archeological underground sites. But it is also an example of the modern use of subterranean sites: oil to service the Scapa Flow naval sites was hidden underground in vast tanks beneath Wee Fea hill. The war theme continues as Calum visits a Cold War underground bunker in Inverness.
Anns a’ Ghà idhealtachd agus na h-Eileanan, bheir Calum cuairt tro uamhan Asainte, geò-pà irc cruinneil UNESCO. À sin, thèid e tuath gu Arcaibh far a bheil beartas de là raich arceòlach fon talamh, ach cuideachd eisimpleir nas ùire den fho-thalamh a chleachdadh. Fo chnoc Wee Fea, tha na tancaichean mòra a bha a’ cumail ola ri là rach a’ Chabhlaich Rìoghail ann an Scapa Flow. A’ cumail ri tèama a’ chogaidh, ann an Inbhirnis tadhlaidh Calum air buncair bho à m a’ Chogaidh Fhuair.
