Joining Andrew from not quite as far away as Emma - Coast HQ in Bristol in fact - is Steve Evanson, the series producer of the original UK version of Coast.
Coast returns for an amazing ninth series on BBC Two this summer, and Steve has been the series producer from the very first series way back in 2004/5. Here he chats to Andrew about the way the series is made, and the various elements which all go together to make Coast the successful and popular programme it is.
You can follow Steve on Twitter at CoastTV.
