AS predicted in the "Free Press" four weeks ago, the BBC have confirmed that they will be returning to Portlogan this summer to film a second series of the drama "2000 acres of Sky".

Starring Michelle Collins and Paul Kay alongside a distinguished Scottish cast, the series was a huge hit with viewers when it was shown at the beginning of the year.

Indeed, the controller of BBC One, Lorraine Heggessey, named it as a personal favourite.

Now the original cast are to return to Portlogan in June and will continue filming throughout the summer months.

Actress Michelle Collins said:

"Portlogan is a stunning spot with loads of atmosphere – it really is quite breathtaking. I loved being part of that last year and I am looking forward to returning again this summer".
