Artist, broadcaster and writer Charlie Lee-Potter takes contemplative walks with a musician, artist, writer or scientist. The name comes from writer Nan Shepherd’s haunting phrase that ’a mountain has an inside’ - walking isn’t to accumulate miles or conquer peaks but to immerse yourself in landscape. Every episode evokes place with a complex, mixed soundscape.

Jade Angeles Fitton had been living a frenetic, toxic life in London, trapped in an abusive relationship and seemingly willingly to continue living that way. But, having been abandoned in a remote Devon barn when the relationship finally collapsed for good, she discovers the powerful consolation that silence can bring. Living as a hermit, she relishes the soothing solace of living alone and speaking to no-one. Her memoir, Hermit: A memoir of finding freedom in a wild place, celebrates isolation - a way of life that's so often misunderstood. Charlie and Jade take a walk from the Devon beach of Croyde to Baggy Point on the cliffs above - the path that Jade used to tread every day alone....
Jade Angeles Fitton at Baggy Point and, below, the calming presence of Lundy on the horizon.
