TV Highlights: From Glen Coe to Nottingham

Telly Today picks for Friday, February 18th…

Nice views…

Susan Calman and campervan Helen pull over to enjoy the scenic views from the stunning shores of Loch Lochy. As she walks alongside, Susan spies some activity ahead — which turns out to be a spot of axe throwing. Local chap Woodman Tom is happy to give her a go — with typical Calman restraint, Susan sets her hopes high, and Olympic fantasies soon follow.

A short drive along to Loch Leven lets Susan experience something she has always wanted to check off her bucket list — powerboating. Being a passenger is one thing, but this time she gets to take the controls and drive. She experiences quite the rush — before her powerboat instructor tells her she’s actually only doing eight miles per hour. With a little more commitment, she’s soon speeding across the loch — and it’s all just as glorious as she’d hoped.

Susan’s last stop is back in beautiful Glen Coe, where she takes to the water and is rather taken by her gorgeous surroundings as she learns to paddle-board. One of the islands on the loch became known as the Isle of Discussion, as the clans would go there to sort out their differences. As Susan takes in the picture postcard scenery from the middle of a calm Scottish loch, it’s hard to imagine anyone ever having a disagreement here.
