Season 1, Episode 1

The TV presenter goes on a voyage of discovery up one of the world's wildest coastlines, travelling through Norway's epic fjords, over mountains and to volcanic islands, embracing the local culture, food and traditions along the way before fulfilling a lifelong dream of witnessing the Northern Lights. Lorraine starts her epic coastal journey in Alesund, the gateway to the fjords, before sailing through the Hjorundfjord. She visits the tiny settlements on its banks, hikes the jagged mountains of the Sunnmore Alps and meets local people who've chosen a timeless, rural life that reminds her of islands back in Scotland. Learning of Friluftsliv, the concept of living in and embracing nature, she enjoys a dip in the chilly waters, before warming up in one of the region's many floating saunas. She then sails through the night to Trondheim, a foodie capital that used to be Norway's Viking capital. Learning about the city's fascinating history while kayaking down its famous River Nid, Lorraine arrives at one of its cutting-edge restaurants to help cook up a feast from ingredients foraged from nearby beaches and woodlands

Lorraine Kelly (Presenter)
Born: November 30, 1959 in Glasgow
Best Known For: Her friendly on-screen manner.
Early-life: Born November 30, 1959, in Gorbals, Glasgow, but later moved with her family to East Kilbride. Her dad John was a TV repairman. She claims her family were far from being well-off, and that her first home had no running water, phone, bath or shower. After passing her Scottish Highers, she was expected to take up a place at university to study Russian and English, but turned it down to take a job on her local newspaper, the East Kilbride News, instead.
Career: Kelly was a news reporter before landing a position as a TV researcher for BBC Scotland in 1983. It was not well paid and she worked as a waitress in the evenings to make ends meet. Despite once being told that her Glasgow accent would prevent her from gaining small screen success she joined TV-am as its senior Scottish correspondent in 1985, but didn't become a household name until she became co-host of Good Morning Britain in 1990. She's hosted her own weekday morning show since 1994; it's been known by various titles but is currently called Lorraine. Other projects include a Sky One show, a regular column for The Sun and her own fitness videos, as well as guest hosting Have I Got News For You and The Paul O'Grady Show. She began co-hosting Daybreak with Aled Jones in May 2012.
Quote: "Being thought of as a sex symbol is hilarious and deeply, deeply flattering."
Trivia: Kelly is a patron of the Association for International Cancer Research.
