Teesside actor Mark Benton joins forces with Robson Green on a quest across the North Yorkshire coastline to sample outdoor activities that promise to be good for the mind and body. The humour-filled road trip sees the pair take the world-famous cliff lift in the Victorian seaside resort of Saltburn-by-the-Sea, while their campside accommodation offers a real-life Hobbit hole for the night. The acting duo take a drawing lesson in the pretty North Yorkshire fishing port of Staithes before squeezing into wetsuits for a bracing cold water swim in the River Tees.
