Robson Green's Weekend Escapes: Series 2: Faye Tozer

BBC Two - Robson Green's Weekend Escapes, Series 2, Faye Tozer

Robson and pop icon Faye Tozer surprise a line dancing class in Northumberland.

Robson heads to the Breamish and Ingram valleys with Faye Tozer. The pair try out rock climbing and water colour painting, and join a line-dancing class.

Robson is joined by Faye Tozer from Steps as they head inland to the Breamish and Ingram valleys, a lesser-known part of beautiful north west Northumberland. Faye, who moved to the region more than a decade ago,  is known for her footwork as a dancer, so Robson thinks he’s found her the perfect activity by introducing her to rock climbing. 

Next, they travel to the banks of the River Breamish to enjoy the peace and quiet, and take a watercolour class with a local artist. After quieting the mind with their creative pursuits, it’s time to move the body, and Robson surprises a group of local line dancers with his celebrity guest. 

After saying goodbye to Faye, Robson makes his way to his overnight accommodation near the village of Branton. The roundhouse he stays in is inspired by the ancient homes that used to populate this part of Northumberland over 2,000 years ago. 

On the final day of his escape, Robson joins local walking guide Dave Harris-Jones for a short hike through the Breamish valley. A picnic at the top of Wether Hill ends the actor’s quest - for now - to feed the mind, body and soul.
