Brighton
The Brighton summer season is crucial for the tourist trade so when the crowds arrive for a blistering bank holiday, the seafront management
team and lifeguards are at full stretch.
Running one of Britain's most popular beaches is a full-time job for seafront manager Chris Ingall and his team, especially on a sun-soaked bank holiday. Summer is crucial for the businesses along the seafront, including for Jack and Neil Messenger's fish shop and for chef Michael Bremner's new restaurant. Meanwhile, how will one of the UK's seaside favourites Punch & Judy fare against new tourist attractions like the i360? In the UK's oldest working aquarium, Sealife, Joe Williams plans his team's raft for Paddle Round the Pier, Brighton's beach festival. The festival gives young people like Jay, who has autism, a chance to enjoy the beach. Rob Reaks has planned his most outrageous costume yet for Pride, and out to sea, the south coast's first offshore wind-farm takes shape.
