Hi there
I watched this programme on Sunday, 23/10/2011, and it was repeated again last night on BBC4. It was very interesting. :t:

It is more to do with environmental issues dealing with planning permission issues, and general mis-use of land for the wrong reasons.
The first part shows a couple who want to set up a business in the Lake District. It involves outdoor activities, and a 'requested' zip-wire for outdoor events.
Natural England are not impressed with the zip-wire due to the disruption of rare flora, and the effect on people who walk over the area killing any natural plants
The poignant thing about this programme was that the husband died while filming this series. It was a little sad too. :-C
There are another two parts and the next involves using quad bikes and the likes to ruffle local people who prefer the peace of the countryside.
Regards
Kathy
