A fast-paced tale of rowing, wooing and dolphin-watching with the binoculars round the wrong way.

Written by and starring The Boom Jennies:

Anna Emerson
Lizzie Bates
Catriona Knox

When cub reporter Jane arrives in Tintagel to get an interview with Cornwall's oldest whelk fisherman, her long-suffering companions could be forgiven if they were a little reluctant to tag along.

Not a bit of it. Spinster-in-waiting Lucy has her eye on Jane's septuagenarian man of the sea, and zoo assistant Amelia has her mind fixed on dolphins. But as they head out into the bay to intercept the aged shellfish gatherer, the speed of Amelia's rowing sets them on a very different course - one of world records, mountainous seas and near misses with oil tankers.

Will Jane get her story? Will Lucy catch the man of her dreams? Will Amelia remember to take the lens cap off her binoculars?

All these questions will be answered before their plucky rowing boat spies land once more.

A series of fast-paced mini-adventures.
