Images of the River Shannon and Leitrim, will be beamed into the homes of up to 2 million people across Britain, when an episode of a popular TV series – narrated by actor Bill Nighy – airs during prime time on Channel 5 this evening (7 May) at 8pm.
The series, called World's Most Scenic River Journeys, is dedicating an entire episode to the Shannon, from source to mouth – showcasing the spectacular scenery and the wealth of things to see and do all along the river. It will highlight the history and heritage of the Shannon and feature a number of people who live and work along the river. Filming took place here last October, supported by Tourism Ireland.
