Dispatch #1: SCAFELL PIKE - Roof of England
...In which we tackle the Big One, Scafell Pike, from Wasdale Head. We're joined by Fix the Fells' Iain Gray, who talks to us about how path engineering has evolved over the 30 years he has worked for the National Trust. On the summit - with its newly rebuilt war memorial - we speak to all ages and nationalities about what summitting England's highest peak means to them.

I was brought up in Holmrook so Scafell Pike was my tramping ground! Great to be able to listen to this... memories... as I’m probably too old now to get up to the summit... so a big thank you!!
