Breathtakingly beautiful rambles with the Grantchester star Certificate: pg You might have already seen the Grantchester actor and keen rambler Robson Green sharing the wonders of the North East of England in his Weekend Escapes for the BBC. He's at it again in this eight-part series but after episode one on home turf, he ventures further afield. Packing his waterproofs and Kendal Mint Cake in his rucksack, Robson rambles the length of Hadrian's Wall for an especially poignant opener in which he stops off at the sight of the Sycamore Gap, the legendary tree felled in an infamous act of vandalism in 2023. The whole route is rich with action-packed history, as well as stunning, more serene sights and that theme, of stimulating adventure combined with restorative reflection, continues at Robson's other destinations. These include gastronomic delights along the banks of the Danube in Austria, an emotional tour of the D-Day landings sites in Normandy, and engineering marvels on the Great Glen Way through the heart of the Scottish Highlands. If you're not yet convinced of the healing power of walking though such stunning landscapes, you soon will be. (Eight episodes)
