Sean Fletcher and Anita Rani head to St Michael’s Mount in Cornwall after Storm Goretti, one of the most destructive storms to hit the county in decades. Hurricane-force winds ripped through the island, stripping away nearly 80 per cent of its trees and leaving the tiny community of just 33 residents facing a huge clean-up. With Easter approaching, they join the race to repair the damage, restore the landscape and reopen this iconic landmark to visitors.
Also in the programme, Datshiane Navanayagam investigates the rise of youth homelessness in rural Britain.
