BBC One - Wanted: A Simple Life, Series 1, Episode 3

Can island life on Skye tempt a social butterfly away from the bright lights of London?

Hannah Lemon feels ready for a new and wild adventure away from the London scene, but is the Isle of Skye taking it one bridge too far for her mum to approve?

Hannah Lemon has spent her twenties living in London, taking advantage of the work and social life the capital offers. But she has noticed that her friends are settling down, and she is afraid of being left behind. It’s time for a change that could inspire her work as a writer to new heights, and the romantic Isle of Skye in the Scottish Highlands beckons. Her mum Clare, meanwhile, remains unconvinced and joins her for the week in Skye to put Hannah’s island dream to the test.
