Synopsis

Series charting a year in the life of the remote Isles of Scilly off the western coast of Cornwall.

It's Easter on the remote Isles of Scilly, and the islanders are nervously preparing for the start of the critically-important holiday season.

Alistair has to explain why he suddenly broke off his engagement to Heike the vet, which has put his whole future on Scilly in doubt, and an important visitor arrives from the mainland - but how will the new Bishop of Truro go down with the locals?
