with Cliff Michelmore
John Carter and Anne Gregg
Canal cruising has been described as 'a 20th-century holiday at a 19th-century pace', and that is certainly true of the journey taken by ANNE GREGG in France last summer. Travel with her along the Canal du Midi between Carcassonne and the Mediterranean coast.
Many people who like a British holiday enjoy an 'old-fashioned' resort, by which they don't mean that it is dull or boring but that the town has preserved the best of the past. Sidmouth in Devon is such a place - but one that can be as lively as any, as JOHN CARTER discovered.
Continuing his reports on the islands of Britain, CLIFF MICHELMORE goes to the Isle of Man - and discovers it has much more to offer than kippers and cats.
In the studio, the latest news and comment on the holiday scene.
