Yorkshire Coastcast - Episode 29 - LANGDALE MOOR FIRE - THE VERY LATEST
Yorkshire Coastcast
Thursday, 28 August 2025 - 25 minutes
17 days and counting: We hear from the FARMERS, LANDOWNERS, FIREFIGHTERS and the local MP about the very latest situation with the Langdale Moor Fire. Landowners and firefighters say without the help of farmers the situation would be much worse. Scarborough & Whitby's MP Alison Hume says 'National Resilience' is here, but the peat could burn for weeks. And farmers tell us about their sleepless nights collecting and delivering water to the fire's front line.
Hosted by Paddy Billington, from This Is The Coast.
