Robson Green's Coastal Lives

Isle of Skye (1x1)

Air date: Sep 12, 2017

Robson Green explores the extraordinary lives and homes of the people who live on Britain’s coastline - from families who are swapping their city homes for a new life by the sea to those who have lived on the coast for generations. In this Episode, Robson travels to the Isle of Skye In Scotland to meet a family who are planning to build their own timber house in just one day. Croft farming is a huge part of life on Skye, and Robson meets a family of crofters who have lived here for 4 generations and helps them move their flock of sheep to Staffin island on a small boat. Robson gets to try his hand at Scallop diving, joining a father and son team, in search of tasty local scallops hidden on the sea bed. And finally Robson visits the isolated island of Soay, which only has 3 residents, to find out what life is like being so cut off from the mainland.
