Season 1
Episodes
Isle of Skye
In this episode, Robson travels to the Isle of Skye In Scotland to meet a family who are planning to build their own timber house in just one day. Croft farming is a huge part of life on Skye, and Robson meets a family of crofters who have lived here for four generations and helps them move their flock of sheep to Staffin Island on a small boat. Robson gets to try his hand at scallop diving, joining a father and son team in search of tasty local scallops hidden on the sea bed. And finally Robson visits the isolated island of Soay, which only has 3 residents, to find out what life is like being so cut off from the mainland.
Island of Anglesey
In this Episode, Robson travels to the island of Anglesey, off the North coast of Wales, to meet a family who live in an ancient fisherman's cottage in the Menai Straits that they have lovingly restored; a woman who has left her stressful life in the city to set up a paddle boarding company on the island and a couple who have spent 12 years renovating their dream cliff top home with spectacular views over the Irish Sea.
Cornish Peninsula
This episode sees him on the Cornish peninsula, meeting a couple in St Ives who are putting their life savings into renovating their coastal home themselves and still finding time to volunteer for their local lifeboat station. Robson also joins a husband-and-wife hang gliding team who take to the skies over the St Agnes heritage coast.
Pembrokeshire
This week he's in Pembrokeshire meeting the family who have bought their very own island complete with Napoleonic Fort; goes fishing with a Lobsterman who couldn't bear to be away from the coast where he grew up and makes a splash with the 'Bluetits', Pembrokeshire's wetsuit-free swimming club who love a swim in the chilly Celtic sea.
Spurn Point
Robson Green explores the extraordinary lives and homes of the people who live on Britain's coastline - from families who are swapping their city homes for a new life by the sea to those who have lived on the coast for generations.
Robson's coastal journey reaches the east coast as he finds out more about the community spirit that makes life by the sea so fulfilling. This week he meets a couple living on a seal sanctuary, the volunteer lighthouse keeper who lives four days a month at the remote coastal location of Spurn Point, and meets the people who live on the former World War I campsite that today houses chalets with listed status.
North Yorkshire
On his final journey around the coast of Britain exploring extraordinary lives and homes, Robson visits the coastline of North Yorkshire. This week he meets a family who plan to build their dream coastal home, complete with a vineyard overlooking the sea; explores an ancient former pub in Scarborough that was once the home of smugglers; and gets involved with a troupe of sea shanty singers in Whitby.

The secret and illegal world of moonshining stretches all across Appalachia raking in a pretty penny for those who choose to shine. Moonshiners will go to unprecedented extremes in their efforts to hide their still sites and cloak their distribution networks, some can hide in plain sight. With new styles of shine being tested and sold there is a king's ransom waiting for those bold enough to grab it. But those who enforce the law are wise to shiner deceptions and more determined than ever to catch them red handed and in the act of making Moonshine.

Each has a keen understanding of how to stay one step ahead of the law in their region, and in this ongoing cat and mouse game you never know who will end up in the trap.
Wild Cards
Wild Cards follows the unlikely duo of a gruff, sardonic cop and a spirited, clever con woman. Ellis, a demoted detective, has unfortunately spent the last year on the maritime unit, while Max has been living a transient life elaborately scamming everyone she meets. But when Max gets arrested and ends up helping Ellis solve a local crime, the two are offered the opportunity to redeem themselves, with Ellis going back to detective and Max staying out of jail. The catch? They have to work together, with each using their unique skills to solve crimes. For Ellis, that means hard-boiled shoe leather police work; for Max, it means accents, schemes and generally befriending everyone in sight, while driving Ellis absolutely nuts. Against the backdrop of beautiful Vancouver — with all its unique, charming, and even contradictory neighbourhoods and subcultures — the two will have to learn what it means to trust another person and maybe actually become partners.
