Hi Mike, Im back and catching up on my mail. Countryfile were put onto the traverse by the Coast program. Last september we did 3 days filming out on the traverse. This is being shown on tues 28th july at 8pm BBC2. I understand that we get about 4 - 5 mins due to the fact that my face was better suited for radio. If they include the helicopter footage it should be quite interesting for climbers wanting to try the traverse. I spoke to Richard Chadwick a few days ago. It seems that countryfile is still interested. I have given him the dates of the tidal windows for access this year. Having experienced filming with the bbc with its health and safety issues it would be much better from the outset to inform any future media companies to think boat and helicopter rather than humping all
the kit down and back up 800ft of cliff. Terry.
