Oscar winner Gareth Ellis-Unwin shares his local riverside route with Clare Balding

Oscar winning film producer Gareth Ellis-Unwin shares his local riverside route in Berkshire with Clare Balding.

The Oscar winning producer of The King’s Speech, Gareth Ellis-Unwin, takes Clare on one of his regular rambles from Pangbourne in Berkshire to Goring on Thames in South Oxfordshire.  Gareth had an unusual route into film-making and now works with the charity, ScreenSkills, which is trying to make it easier for people of all backgrounds to join the industry.  Walking -  Gareth says -  is vital for the creative process, and he has a lot bubbling under:  including a project about the extraordinary Georgian explorer, Lady Hester Stanhope.  

We started in Pangbourne at Grid Ref:  SU636767 and walked along the Thames Path to Goring on Thames. Our final landmark was Goring Lock, Grid Ref: SU596808

Producer: Karen Gregor
