Paul Murton experiences island life. Here, he visits Foula and Fair Isle, and makes a nerve-wracking visit to the Sneck o' da Smallie - a pothole in the cliffs of Foula.
In the first Grand Tours of the Scottish Islands, Paul Murton sets out to visit some of the myriad of islands that lay off our coastline. Heading to Foula and Fair Isle, the most remote island communities in Britain, Paul makes a nerve-wracking visit to the Sneck o' da Smallie - a pothole in the cliffs of Foula which leads through to the Atlantic shore on the island - and learns about the beautiful knitting patterns which have made Fair Isle world-famous. Next, Paul Murton is turning his back on the sea and discovering the secrets of Scotland's landlocked islands, heading to the bonnie, bonnie banks of Loch Lomond. To begin his journey, Paul takes a stunning microlight flight across the loch to get a bird's-eye view of one of Scotland's most iconic beauty spots, before going island hopping to meet some of the extraordinary people who live here.
