Attention All Shipping: A Journey Around The Shipping Forecast (Omnibus)

The Shipping Forecast on BBC Radio 4 is as familiar as the sound of Big Ben chiming the hour.

Yet, recognisable though the sea areas are by name, few people give much thought as to where they are or what they contain.

Charlie Connelly sets off on a journey into the forecast to find out, from North Utsire to South East Iceland and every port of call between.

From the book written by Charlie Connelly.

Omnibus of five episodes abridged by Beatrice Colin.

Read by Tom Goodman-Hill.

Producer: Gaynor MacFarlane

First broadcast on BBC Radio 4 in June 2004.
