Thanks for the reminder Kymba but I though the series was starting tonight with the mountains of north west Scotland.

You may be moving south too quickly .... something I always try not to do when returning from my annual trips to to the Scottish Highlands .

What ever is on tonight, I am sure that this will be an excellent series for those interest in the UK uplands.

I thought it was Scotland too - but I shall enjoy them all regardless. Also a new seies of Wainwright Walks with Julia Bradbury follows it on BBC4 I think.

Thanks for the reminder, Kymba. Sounds like it should be a good series - I certainly hope so, there's not been much worth watching on TV recently!

Now that BBC have lost the rights to 'Neighbours', I think they should replace it with twice daily episodes of 'Nature's Calendar'!

Thoroughly enjoyable programme, I thought. Definitely a series to watch. I could have done with it being quite a bit longer - some of the sections seemed rushed to get it all in.

Didn't it make you glad you don't own and have responsibility for a historic castle?

Another excellent programme from the BBC, I hope the rest of the series is as good. I was a bit worried that Griff would make it to humorous, but his enthusiasm for the county side and views were great. All though I felt sorry for the receptionist in the hotel, he seemed to be trying to climb over the reception desk as he was talking to her.
£19 million to repair the castle, unbelievable.

With Mountain and coast already on the TV, what will be next? River perhaps!
