Sheep on the Road is the twentieth episode of the sixth series.
Plot[]
The story begins with a broken gate on Woolly the sheep's field. The farmer calls upon Mike Flood to repair it. In the meantime, Woolly is sent to stay with a sick Norman Price, with Dilys Price hoping the sheep will lift his spirits.
Bored and feeling better, Norman and Woolly sneak out of the house and head towards the field. Norman's mischief leads to Woolly wandering onto the road through the still-broken gate, creating a dangerous hazard.
The situation escalates when Trevor Evans, driving his bus, is forced to swerve to avoid hitting Woolly. The bus goes off the road and is left dangerously balanced on the edge of a cliff. Fireman Sam and Elvis Cridlington are called to the scene. Using their fire engine and equipment, they successfully tow the bus to safety, rescuing a shaken but unharmed Trevor. The episode concludes by emphasizing the importance of keeping farm gates securely closed to prevent such accidents.
