Coast repeats

[DSJ]

We've been recording & watching the 'Coast' repeats over the past few weeks but the one episode that we are particularly interested in, the one that included shots on the Isle of Man, doesn't seem to have been among the episodes shown.

Have we missed it or is there some reason why it was not repeated?

Are the shots in the opening titles? If so, could it be that they use photos for all the series from the first they filmed, and didn't go back to the I.O.M.?

There have been 5 series of Coast and it does annoy me when they put on the TV guide just the name of the program "Coast".

It would be very useful if the online Sky TV guide would say what series it is from - Coast 1, Coast 2 etc would help.

The programmes on now are I think repeats of an earlier series. The IOM episode was from a subsequent series, which was "new" when shown.

The Coast programmes are now shown on Yesterday Channel (Part of UKTV/Sky).

TTheprogramme you want is Southport to Whitehaven (including the Isle of Man).

The Isle of Man was covered in Programme 3 of Series 3. Given that Programme 6 from that series is being shown on BBC2 tonight, I'm surprised it wasn't shown 3 weeks ago. But looking at the schedules for that day shows that 'The Classroom Experiment" was showing at that time.

The BBC seems to be showing the 'Coast' programmes simply as 'fillers' in the schedules, rather than with any great deal of planning. (The repeats currently being shown on Blighty are from Series 1, 2 and 4. They don't seem to have bought the rights to Series 3).

If you're desperate to see the Isle of Man programme, it's called "Southport to Whitehaven"

Thanks so much, all of you. Your help is greatly appreciated. We'll probably watch it again on-line and then buy the DVD.

I bought the DVD, as suggested, and have now watched the IOM episode. Thanks very much to you all for your help.

Whilst I was away last weekend i spent a wonderful couple of days watching the isle of man coast from where i was staying, my room on the top floor had an uninterupted view of the IOM coastline and all the sea in between, brilliant, (I was in love wit Neil Oliver over the summer too and so feel an affinity with the show aswell lol)

[DSJ]

Where were you staying, dotty? We went to the IOM last August after recommendations from friends and absolutely fell in love with the place. We'll go back again next year and stay longer. I too, think Neil Oliver is the bee's knees!
