Isle of Wight: Jewel of the South (2023)
Series celebrating the natural beauty and historical heritage of the Isle of Wight, following the lives of residents whose families have lived there for generations.
Seasons & Episode
Step back into paradise as various local residents compete in the iconic Round the Island yacht race, roll out a new ice cream flavour and develop an alpaca walking business.
Local fisherman Bob needs a bumper haul for the island's popular floating restaurant. And we visit a campsite where cleverly converted holiday lets include a sub used in a Bond movie.
In Calbourne, viewers meet Sally Chaucer, who owns the oldest working watermill on the island. There's also a look at newcomer Susan McCall, who moved from the mainland to Wroxall to take up a new role at the Isle of Wight Donkey Sanctuary.
Summer is almost over, but in the seaside town of Sandown, there's still plenty to look forward to as the town gears up for the Sandown Carnival. Keen to drum up new custom, café owner Vivette Fryer is planning a barbecue to give revellers a taste of her authentic Caribbean cooking. In Colwell Bay, former kite surfing champion Tom Court is making the most of the windy weather to brush up on his skills.
