ITV - Tales from the Coast With Robson Green Series 1 (2017) Part 4 Blackwater Estuary

Tales from the Coast with Robson Green

Join Robson Green as he explores the shores of Britain, on a journey to find out just what it is that makes our coast so special and how as an island nation, Britain has been shaped and defined by its relationship with the sea.

Part 4 Blackwater Estuary

Robson’s tour of the UK's coastal landscape concludes as he visits Essex and Suffolk, beginning with the salt marshes of the Blackwater Estuary, where he tries to run the route of the Maldon Mud Race. At Clacton-on-Sea, Robson reunites a group of Mods and Rockers, who previously made headlines via a dramatic clash on the resort town's beach in 1964. He also takes in Orford Ness, a giant shingle spit that once served as a top-secret military base, and played a vital role in Britain's defence in both World Wars, and in Southwold he meets the owners of some of Britain's most sought-after beach huts.
