Presenter Andrew Fagg introduces Series Two on Dales dialect, with special guests Val and Rob Ward.  He visits Hawes Methodist Cemetery and makes the case for dialect.  Enter then the remarkable voice of the late Lizzie Dinsdale, in a recording made in the 1970s but until now hidden away.   She gives her recipe for havercake and speaks about doing a 'man's part' at hay time.
