IT seems ITV has plenty of places for actress and presenter Caroline Quentin to visit. No sooner has she explored Cornwall for the small screen than National Parks are on her schedule.

The latest series focuses on three of Britain’s most spectacular National Parks – Snowdonia, the New Forest and, in the first episode, Loch Lomond and the Trossachs, which are nestled in the South- West of Scotland.

Quentin’s first trip involves seeing the area from a great vantage point – via a seaplane flight. “It’s quite epic,” she points out. One moment it looks quite domestic and quite small, and the next minute it’s really quite grand and takes your breath away.”
