Dungeness (32x5)

Fecha de emisión: Feb 02, 2020

Matt Baker, Margherita Taylor and Steve Brown are in Dungeness in Kent, where Margherita meets people behind a campaign to save film-maker and artist Derek Jarman's famous cottage and garden. She talks to the people who knew him best and explores his life and legacy. She also spends time with the last of the 'lady launchers', those hardy women who helped launch lifeboats by hand in former times. Matt explores Dungeness's strange and barren landscape, where blackthorn grows flat against shingle, and meets people harvesting sloes for a very special gin festival. Steve is given a photography lesson by a photographer who shoots on film, Adam meets a farmer who has already started shearing her rare breed Gotland sheep, and special guest presenter Deborah Meaden looks at what the future holds for rural post offices.
