The Pembrokeshire Coast
The seasons are marked on Wales' Pembrokeshire's coast by the arrival of the puffins, which court by tapping their multi-coloured bills. Farmers grow the earliest potatoes, while sheep are employed to maintain the clifftop pastures for the rare choughs that use their long red beaks to probe for grubs. As autumn arrives, the grey seals produce their white-coated pups just before the gales mark the might of winter. Using time-lapse techniques, this documentary brings fresh insight into the restless rhythms of the countryside in an exploration of how and why this region is the way it is. Narrated by Toby Jones
