Wild North [22/02/2000] (Wild North)
A warden at one of the National Trust's most far-flung sites has some curious companions.
The Farne Islands are a group of 20 rocky islands off the Northumberland coast. They are currently home to over 43,000 puffins, but for several hundred years they were host to Christian monks and hermits, who would retreat to a small cell alone, or occasionally with up to six other monks. At the time of writing the islands have no permanent population, but National Trust rangers stay frequently to monitor this internationally important wildlife breeding ground.

Wildlife & Nature in the North East
A cornucopia of wild delights in this series of nature programmes from the North East.
Made by filmmaker and agricultural journalist Charles Boden, these films sought to capture the best of wildlife projects in the region. However, they captured so much more, from a controversial visitor attraction that was later closed down by the authorities, to the birth of the first new osprey colony in England. This series is a time capsule of timeless things.
