Soft and stately - and quietly elegant. They say it's such a civilised place - Torquay. But Jenny and Tony,
Motoring gently into town from the raucous north, find it's a paragliding, boats and beaches by Cockington Forge, cream tea on roller-skates over synchronised swimming, model village and, Fawlty
