Clare Balding is joined by Ricky Ross and Lorraine Mcintosh of Deacon Blue in Fife.

Clare Balding is joined by singers Ricky  Ross and Lorraine McIntosh of the band Deacon Blue  to walk one of their favourite coastal routes in Fife.  Starting at Elie they walk along the beach passing through the village of St Monan's ending in the picturesque fishing town of Pittenweem.  Ricky and Lorraine have been married for over thirty years and perform together as part of the band, as well as having their own careers in broadcasting and acting.  They say the secret to their enduring relationship is doing things together as a couple and sharing the same interests, one of which is walking.  One of their favourite areas to walk is the East Neuk in Fife reputed to have some of the driest sunniest weather in the UK because of its sheltered position between the Rivers Forth and Tay.

Producer: Maggie Ayre
