Series 4 Compilations: 1. Where Myths Are Made and A Fyne Tour
Paul explores the lochs of Skye. He hears tales of the singer Donovan and his dream of a hippy colony. He then goes in search of a Viking ship canal, before tackling one of the longest rock climbs in the Cuillin Mountains – the Dubhs Ridge. Visiting Scotland’s longest sea loch, Paul learns how to paddle a coracle, then follows Queen Victoria on the trail of poverty tourism, before having fun with the tale of MacPhunn - a man who cheated the noose. From the wreckage of a World War II superfortress and stories of diamond smuggling, Paul visits a sacred Tinkers’ Heart before ringing the changes at Inveraray.
