Wild Isles: Serenity in the UK

Inspired by Sir David Attenborough's Wild Isles on Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ One, Angela Griffin has handpicked a calming selection of tunes that relate to the counties and countryside across the UK.

Sir David Attenborough’s new Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ One show Wild Isles celebrates the diverse nature found across the United Kingdom.

So, Angela Griffin is continuing that theme with a selection of songs that salute the calming countryside and peaceful places across the UK.

From Morcheeba taking us to a Brighton beach where seagulls steal ice cream, via the West Yorkshire Moors where Kate Bush dancing is mandatory, up to the magnificent sight of Sunshine on Leith.

Be inspired as you join us for a nourishing pilgrimage to the beauty on our doorstep.
