The Lakes with Paul Rose

Explorer Paul Rose digs out his rucksack and heads for Windermere. The National Park attracts 18 million visitors each year, and is now a World Heritage Site. Paul joins the crowds and finds out why the early tourists thought the Lakes was one of the most dangerous spots in the country. He also plunges into the world of long-distance swimming and helps the staff who run the boats on the lake.
