I would just like to say what an absolutley fantastic programme this has been. I have been fascinated and amazed by the information this programme has provided.

One of my favourite areas of coast is the Seven Sisters in East Sussex, though I find the whole of the coast of the United Kingdom a wonderful site each area with its own beauty and history.

The BBC Horizon team did a one-off programme in the eighties called 'The Shape of Britain' which involved flying around the coast of Britain whilst local experts acted as guides to tell you what you were seeing. I personally think that this formula worked far more successfully that the one used by Nicholas Crane in Coast, because every time I get drawn into his programme one of his assistants pops-up for ten minutes to tell us all about a nearby town.
