The Islay edition of the Channel 5 programme is part of the successful fly-on-the-wall documentary series about the Eddie Stobart group, now in its second series.
Eddie Stobart has an urgent delivery to make to Bruichladdich on the windswept isle of Islay but the worst winter storms for decades cause major problems.
Bruichladdich single malt whisky is enjoyed all over the world, and orders need to be shipped in time for Christmas. Winds gust at 60 knots - hurricane speed - and cause problems with the Islay ferry service. Time is running out.
The Eddie Stobart Christmas Special featuring Bruichladdich will be shown on prime-time TV on on Channel 5 on Christmas Day at 9pm.
But like many Christmas programmes it will be a repeat - albeit from the night before, Christmas Eve - with the first showing at 7pm.
