Thank you very much for this beautiful discovery. I'm wondering if they tried to contact MK about this.

After watching this, who does not think about moving to Pennan now and leaving the bull**** behind?!

 :D

Me!   Even the most seemingly perfect place would become just as mundane as anywhere eventually!   I'm absolutely happy where I live now!   :D

Interestingly, only the village scenes were filmed in Pennan.  The beach scenes were filmed in and around Arisaig, on the west coast.  :)

Pennan's nice enough but there are some real crappy areas nearby (IMO!).

Nearby?

I spent some time yesterday with google street view in Pennan and it looks like a very small and charming place  :)
