The Cumbria Way, stretching 70 miles between Ulverston and Carlisle, passes through some of the most beautiful scenery in the north west. Devised by enthusiasts shortly after the county's creation in the mid-70s, it is still one of the lesser-known long-distance foothpaths.
Colin Philpott took a week out to walk it encountering a lot of Cumbrian characters on the way.

Peter Ustinov presents a personal and entertaining view of Russia's tumultuous history, in six parts. 2: Peter the Great and Catherine the Great Peter the Great revolutionised 17th-century Russia, ruthlessly imposing western technology and customs on the reluctant boyars. He founded the Russian navy and built the 'Venice of the North'. St
Petersburg - now renamed in honour of another revolutionary - Lenin.
Peter Ustinov also looks at the life and legacy of the flamboyant Catherine the Great, who surrounded herself with foreign architects and artists.
