I have come across a couple of programmes that have provided me with ideas of new places to visit, one from a TV series and the other from a BBC Radio 4 Podcast. The latter one will, I think, be of particular interest to Moulesy, TW and tda.

Robson Green's Weekend Escapes on BBC I-player. https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p0dp30rc

The Disused Chapel on the Cornish Skyline on BBC Sounds  https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b06s871d

    Thanks Nellie👍 We watched the first episode of Robson Green’s programme, but didn’t follow up on any others. Some interesting guests with him. Will give it another whirl at some point, I like Robson Green, recall watching him doing some wild swimming programmes a while ago.

    We are always interested in old Cornish buildings as well. There are some lovely converted Chapels down there👍

    We only caught the Robson Green series because in the 14th episode he goes to Holy Island with LJ Ross, the author of the DCI Ryan series, and the first one is based around there. If you are not familiar with the books each is centred on a specific place in the N East.
