Spirit: Discovering the Highlands and Islands – Details, episodes & analysis

What comes to mind when you think of the Scottish Highlands and Islands? Is it the land? The people? The sights, sounds and smells?

In this series, join first-time visitor Peter Knowles as he discovers the region, speaking with the rich tapestry of people who live and work here. From families whose local roots go back generations, to others have moved here more recently, from every corner of the world. Together, their stories, experiences, loves, and losses help us discover what the Spirit of the Highlands and Islands is today.

The Spirit of the Highlands and Islands project is supported by a grant from the Natural and Cultural Heritage Fund (NCHF), led by NatureScot and funded by the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF).
