Summary

Helen Skelton, JB Gill and Jules Hudson explore the UK's coastline. In North Yorkshire, Helen descends 4,500 feet into the UK's deepest mine - the only place on Earth where polyhalite is extracted. On the Kent coast, JB explores Dungeness - a vast shingle headland and a haven for unlikely wildlife. Jules is in Devon, setting sail from Salcombe aboard the iconic Yawl - the pride of the south coast

Review

Jane Rackham

Good friends Helen Skelton, Jules Hudson and JB Gill are exploring Britain’s 11,000 miles of coastline. But not together. Instead, they share their experiences — in this first episode, in North Yorkshire, Devon and Kent — via their mobile phones. While most of us would be content having an ice cream and a paddle, they hunt for leeches and singing frogs, explore ancient caves, hear a choir singing in a mine, and join rescue dogs on a training exercise.

There’s a lot of teasing and joking as they view each other’s reports, especially when Helen keeps grinding to a halt on a land yacht on Redcar beach.
