More about Paul Martin

He has travelled all around the UK filming the show and in addition has presented two series of Britain’s Hidden Heritage (BBC1), The Manor Reborn (BBC1) and Paul Martin’s Handmade Revolution for BBC2.
Paul lives in Wiltshire with his wife and two children who feature regularly, together with their smallholding on the BBC’s Countryfile Diaries. He also has an art and antiques gallery, The Table Gallery, in Corsham.
