Coastal Devon & Cornwall with Michael Portillo

Channel 5, 8pm

We’ve seen him take plenty of Great Railway journeys, but in the first episode of this new series Michael Portillo (above) sets off on a coastal walk, while also finding time for a spot of kayaking. The first leg starts beneath England’s highest sea cliff, the 1,000ft Great Hangman, and he’s joined en route to Woolacombe by author Raynor Winn.
