    3. Which channel 4 was that where? It's a global cyberspace, friend. Ch. 4 ain't universal. How about a network name and name of program?

In Orkney we get the 4 main UK terrestrial channels - BBC1, BBC2, STV and Channel 4 (we don't get channel 5). If anyone in the UK refers to a TV programme and doesn't mention specifically that it's on sky or cable, then it's likely to be one of the 4 main UK channels. Fiona Orkney

However, terrestrial TV reception on the island is awful so most people go for Sky which carries all the aforementioned channels plus umpteen others. The programme to which I referred was called "Atlantic Britain" and featured journalist Adam Nicolson who is travelling up the west coast of the British Isles in a 42 foot sailing boat. In next Friday's (09 October) programme he visits the Faroe Islands. -- Bruce Fletcher Stronsay, Orkney http://www.stronsay.co.uk/claremont http://www.caytonwitheastfield.btinternet.co.uk "Dogs have owners, cats have staff"

    3. Is there a web site that goes along with Nicolson's project/program? Many people who do such projects often have web sites.
