...produced the first series of Coast I was an ardent viewer.
Of course when the trailers for the second series started showing I did wonder how they could follow up the first one, maybe do it all the other way round? Walk backwards? As it turned out I need not have worried, save for the fact that through work and other commitments I missed all but two programmes. So I was mighty pleased when a DVD of the second series appeared on Christmas morning.
... ...team are back but why Coast 2. The short answer is there is so much more to tell about the geology, history, geography and zoology which make up our coast.

Advantages: Informative and entertaining Disadvantages: none
My husband saw a couple of these programs a while ago and did nothing but rave about them. So when I saw the box set in Virgin for £10.99 I had to buy it to see what all the hype was about. I have to admit since starting to watch it, conversation has come to a grinding halt in our house due to the fact that I am glued to it.
