Susan Calman visits Lyme Regis in Channel 5 TV series

Susan Calman’s Grand Day Out, a Channel 5 television series, sees the star explore Britain’s sights in her vintage campervan, going and up and down the country.

So far on her adventures spanning seven seasons, she has travelled to, among other places, Cornwall, Yorkshire, Belfast and Shropshire, and Weymouth. Tonight (Thursday, August 1) the presenter will head to Dorset again.  

In episode five airing tonight, Susan journeys to Lyme Regis and visits the historic Cobb to pay homage to a classic film.

She will then meet with Carry On film star Anita Harris before taking to the water with a Gig Boat Racing Team.

The show also makes a splash with the Lyme Regis-Splash water polo team, who faced off against the Bridport Barracudas during filming.
