Adrian Dunbar's Coastal Ireland gives viewers a look at its stunning coastline, presented by the much-loved Line of Duty actor.
As he travels around, he gets the opportunity to achieve a lifelong ambition to visit the Skellig Islands, as well as meeting up with old friends along the way. The first episode saw him crossing treacherous seas to reach the islands, and also showcases the spectacular Mizen bridge, which is suspended 45 metres above sea level.
Julie Wakley, Tourism Ireland’s Head of Great Britain, said: “Tourism Ireland was delighted to support the production of this new TV series, Adrian Dunbar's Coastal Ireland.
"With around two million people across Britain set to watch the programme, it’s a great way to shine a spotlight on Northern Ireland and the island of Ireland, reminding viewers of our spectacular coastline."
But there's a second part to his epic journey, and we've put together everything you need to know about the picturesque two-parter and how to catch up if you've missed the first episode.
