Pembrokeshire is in the tv spotlight once again this week as popular comedian and presenter Susan Calman makes a visit to sample some seaside pleasures.

Susan became a firm fan of the county’s charms last year when she called in with her vintage campervan for her Susan Calman’s Grand Day Out series.

Now she’s back with a second series of Susan Calman’s Grand Week by the Sea, which will be screened on Channel 5 from Monday August 1 to Friday August 5.

Thursday’s Episode Four sees Susan arriving in Tenby for a town tour in style, as a passenger in a tuk tuk.
