It was the simplest idea – and one of Westward's fondest remembered programmes. Walking Westward followed Clive Gunnell as he walked the length of the South West coastline, chatting to local characters on the way. On his journey Clive amassed a collection of walking sticks, which soon became his trademark and before long he gained a large collection of them thanks to viewers sending them in. Our clip is taken from "40 Years of ITV" broadcast in 2001. Also available is an MP3 of the theme music, "Old World Charm" by Johnny Pearson.
