I worked in theatre backstage with a guy from Richmond. His father was the custodian of the castle and he started his career at the Georgian Theatre.

I enjoyed the walk around Richmond. I was hoping you would go on the castle turrets. There's a wonderful view from the top. And a lovely walk down to the river. I'm within an hours drive from all your yorkshire walks. Bring it on. Many thanks.

I have been to Richmond many times, although not for several years. Did I see that the Yorkshire Trading store is closing? I hope not. Also did not see the Edinburgh Woolen Mill shop- Is that gone also? Have you filmed in Askrigg and Hawes? Both interesting villages, and Askrigg has all the connections with the first "All Creatures Great and Small " TV series. A very lovely village. I lived there for a short time. Please keep filming around Yorkshire- so many interesting places to see
