The first programme in the 2009 series of New Hands have been delivered
safely to the BBC. One down, five to go. It's been a real eye-opener

wants to expand even more. Can she still retain her cottage industry
ethos? Will she ever get to grips with the fact that she can't do
everything herself? Tune in and find out.
