Britain's Lost World
Thu 19 Jun, 9:00 pm - 10:00 pm 60mins
1/3. Historian Dan Snow, naturalist Steve Backshall and wildlife enthusiast Kate Humble set out to solve the mysteries of St Kilda, the only British World Heritage Site nominated for both its extraordinary history and its wildlife. Home to seabirds and seals, the islands are a place of mystery. Until just eighty years ago, St Kilda was inhabited, and those people lived in an extraordinary way. When they suddenly abandoned their homes, they left behind a place full of secrets. Who were the strange and remarkable St Kildans? Why did they leave? And can St Kilda's amazing wildlife survive in the modern world?
In this first programme, Steve collects food the St Kildan way - by abseiling down a 400 foot cliff; Kate finds out how this season's baby puffins are getting on; and Dan discovers the islands' Viking history. But when Steve and Dan set out to row to the island of Boreray, plans go awry.

I still say it would be a great place for a preseason camp- or maybe midseason break and they can do something for world heritage whilst they are there.
