Robson Green visited a beauty spot that he said "never fails to fill me with joy" in the first episode of his new BBC series set in the North East.
The 58-year-old actor, who was born in Hexham, has toured the region for his BBC2 show Robson Green's Weekend Escapes, and the first episode on Monday saw him stop off in Bamburgh. The Wire in the Blood star reminisced about family days out in Northumberland growing up, describing the coastline as his "most favourite place in the world."
Bamburgh was a particular favourite in his family, Robson said, as he said that the stunning beach rivals "any in the Caribbean". Nostalgic Robson added that visiting Bamburgh gave his parents - his dad who worked as a miner and his mam who had two jobs as a cleaner and shopkeeper - a "sense of freedom", sharing that his dad loved to swim in the chilly sea.
