David begins his series exploring the scenic beauty, history, and culture of Scotland with a journey into the Highlands and Islands across Argyll to Glencoe.

Along his way, Hayman visits Easdale Island – once the centre of the Scottish slate industry and now home to the World Stone Skimming Championships – and goes on to the notorious Corryvreckan Whirlpool before reaching Glencoe and a brutal engineering masterpiece of the early 1900s: the Blackwater Dam.

David Hayman continues his series exploring the scenic beauty, history and culture of Scotland with a journey into Speyside and the Cairngorms. There he fulfils a childhood dream aboard a restored steam train; feeds Nordic reindeer and canoes down the River Spey to seek out the oldest living thing in Britain.
