The great outdoors is the ultimate panacea, says Julia Bradbury – and her new TV series will inspire you to get out and enjoy it.
When Julia Bradbury first stood in the stunning amphitheatre at the open-air Minack Theatre overlooking Porthcurno Bay, Cornwall, a decade ago she was pregnant with her nine-year-old son Zephyrus and desperately worried about her mother Chrissi who was ill with bowel cancer.
Today Julia, 50, has not only Zephyrus, but five-year-old twins Xanthe and Zena too – conceived after four rounds of IVF – and a thankfully cancer-free 83-year-old mum. She was reminded of that bittersweet time when she returned to the theatre this summer to film the eight-part ITV series Cornwall And Devon Walks With Julia Bradbury.
