Did anyone else see “Winter Walks” which was on BBC 1 last night? It highlighted a 6.5m walk in Dentdale, Cumbria. A bit different from the Julia Bradbury type program, the walk was filmed by the poet Lemm Sissay on a 360 degree camera.

I found it very enjoyable to watch and gave a true feeling of isolation in beautiful surroundings which was helped by a lovely bright and crisp winters day.

There was something similar filmed in Yorkshire by an artist whose  name unfortunately escapes me. Some of the walks we had done ourselves so it brought back memories.

Shanaz Gulzar did the Yorks  waIks I think? We enjoyed her programmes, no music, just natural sounds and interesting comments.

Thanks for the heads up about Winter Walks Whittaker, will look out for them. 🚶

Lovely Wharfedale walk tonight with Selina Scott, really enjoyed it. Worth a look if you need a wind down after Boris and the lockdown news. BBC LINK

Just remember during lockdown walks must start and finish from your doorstep

Not over here Fish, just in your local area I can't see anywhere that you can't drive to a local park for example for that exercise, not a good idea perhaps but within our rules.

This should be limited to once per day, and you should not travel outside your local area.

You can exercise in a public outdoor place

and

Would-be exercisers can now venture to parks, beaches and even local countryside for a workout.

Playgrounds, heritage sites and public gardens also qualify as places to visit for a daily jog.

But people must stay local - in their village, town or city - when they venture out, and without company
