Saw it, nice photography in a kind of dreamy and romantic sort of way. My best memory of Blencathra was in the 60s, I was young and helped to take some young London city kids out of the city for the first time in their life. One lad, from Stanford Hill, saw his first sheep, screamed and ran off!

Certainly much more entertaining than the usual dross thats on TV. Loved the 3 climbing sharp edge bit exposed so get the reluctance from one.  The flooding was bad also lots of areas had a very bad time with that around the north west hopefully it stays drier in the coming years.

Blencathra is my favourite mountain and Terry Abraham's film was wonderful to watch. Superb photography, what a great job he has done  O0 I have ordered the DVD, it is an hour longer than the abridged version shown on BBC4. It is someone's birthday soon....  8)

I think we saw Terry Abraham when we coming down from the Old Coach Road near Newsham last April. If it was him, he had camping gear and he was heading up toward Clough Head or Threlkeld Knotts.

Nearly forgot...
Low Bridge End Farm at St John's In the Vale is now open for business again after the floods. They have self catering and a camping barn. The tea room is open again too  O0

Thanks for that, it is one of my favourite stop off spots and glad they are back in business again.
I like how the older chap comes to talk to you, even though it is self-service: you get the impression he enjoys a chat.
