Caroline finds love again with Jim, but there's a slight problem…Jim lives 600 miles away.

Caroline & Jim

Caroline Fielder was very happily married for thirty to a man thirty years older than herself. But when her husband died when she was 53, she realised she didn't want to spend the rest of her life alone.

Thus began Caroline's five year search to find a new partner. And it was through the personal ads in national newspapers that she met Jim Stebbings a couple of years ago.

Although they get on incredibly well, there's a slight problem. Caroline lives in Warwickshire, while Jim lives at Cape Wrath over 600 miles north in Scotland.

Listen to the interview to find out how they met and their plans for the future
