New Channel 4 Series Set To Celebrate The Yorkshire Coast Starts Next Week

We love the Yorkshire Coast, from Redcar and Saltburn-by-the-Sea all the way down to Spurn Point. It’s 100-miles of idyllic scenery and wonderful communities and history. And, Channel 4 is set to explore its people and landscape in a new four-part series Yorkshire By The Sea.

The brand new show will delve into the lives of people working and living along the coast telling stories of everyday heroes and communities.

With an idyllic coastal backdrop Yorkshire by the Sea the True North production, the show will highlight the region’s coast various communities in each episode from the challenges of living on the fast-eroding coastline to how the region is tackling climate change and new innovation within the areas.

Commissioner of the series, Jasper Hone, said: “This beautiful series will showcase the breathtaking landscape of the Yorkshire coastline, but also show how communities are facing – and tackling – the impact of the climate crisis in their daily lives.
