Just found your website and just a quick message to say how much my Dad - from Wales but a big fan of the Scottish hills - and I enjoyed the Sutherland Trail programme. Wondered if there's any further info available about the route you took. Also very intrigued by the lightweight gear you carried - be very grateful if you had time to jot down a quick kit list. thanks. David Hi Cameron.

Afraid it's now gone from the BBC i-Player too. There will be a DVD available in a couple of months time, and a book later in the year. Incidentally, Director Richard Else and I will be talking about the making of the programme at this year's Fort William Mountain Festival in March. Hi John,

Very good indeed - highly recommended. For much of the television walking I used lightweight Berghaus boots. There really wouldn't be any problem using trail shoes like Innov-8's as the vast majority of the route is on paths and tracks. Hi Greg,

I was wondering what poles you were using as they looked like flicklocks. I quite fancy having a go as my twist locks often slip. Were you using trail shoes or lightweight boots on the walk? Are innov8 s not suitable for the terrain? I revert to light boots in winter and wondered if you did the same. thanks. By the way I enjoyed your lecture in Keswick recently. Enjoyed the show.

There will, hopefully, be a follow up but not, I suspect, until next Boxing Day. And Robin, you're probably right about wearing black but I guess I could've worn any colour, the midgies were out to get me... Thanks guys, delighted you enjoyed it.

I hope there is more, as I was left wishing that was merely "episode 1". Watched it with my parents and we all thoroughly enjoyed it.
