...and what does go on behind the scenes?

Saturday 5th October comments: Have you ever wondered what goes on behind the scenes of the Farne Islands? Who make up the team, what life is really like on those rocky outcrops and what makes the place tick? Well you’re about to find out….

This autumn, broadcast journalist Michael Buerk will rediscover some of Britain’s best loved landscapes, uncover hidden secrets and meet the people behind the scenes of the National Trust in a new 20 part series on ITV 1 from 6th October.

The ‘docu-series’, showcases six very diverse places, from the wildlife on the Farne Islands to Georgian life at Wordsworth House, an insight into the Victorians at Cragside, life on a working estate at Wimpole and introduces the Strickland family who have lived at Sizergh in Cumbria for 700 years.

So you can follow the Farnes team from the first few minutes of landing back on the islands in mid-march, to the completion of the full Puffin census and even take a sneak look at how we live!

Inside the National Trust was made by RDF for ITV. The first hour long episode airs on Sunday 6th October. So tune in and watch the Farnes like you have never seen it before!
