Attention All Shipping: A Journey Around The Shipping Forecast (Omnibus)

Charlie Connelly sets out to explore the sea areas flagged in the Shipping Forecast, from North Utsire to South East Iceland. From 2004.

The Shipping Forecast on 麻豆社 Radio 4 is as familiar as the sound of Big Ben chiming the hour.

Yet, recognisable though the sea areas are by name, few people give much thought as to where they are or what they contain.

Charlie Connelly sets off on a journey into the forecast to find out, from North Utsire to South East Iceland and every port of call between.

From the book written by Charlie Connelly.

Omnibus of five episodes abridged by Beatrice Colin.

Read by Tom Goodman-Hill.

Producer: Gaynor MacFarlane
