Dan Walker issues joint statement with Helen Skelton ahead of new show

A Strictly Come Dancing star had been filming a new Channel 5 project, which will soon be hitting our screens. BBC's Dan Walker and Helen Skelton have been working on the project together.

Pennine Adventure will see the pair take on The Pennine Way, which is a national trail in England for more than 200 miles reports Birmingham Live. Dan tweeted: "Brilliant day filming @pennineadventure.

"We were mining Blue John in the @treakcliffcavern and canoeing under the Pennies through the Standedge Tunnel with the @canalrivertrust. We met so many lovely people. Hopefully on the @channel5_tv telly box in August."

One fan replied: "Awww Blue John Mines brings back happy day trip memories from Yorkshire with my dear departed mum and dad - can’t wait to see the programme." A second said: "Sufficient headroom- that was surprising. The canal underground is amazing. Will give this a watch."

"You certainly took on some various challenges. Hope they went well and you came out unscathed," said another.

A fourth wrote: "I'm sure that's my old college tutor Andy at the back." Another added: said: "So looking forward to watching you two @mrdanwalker and @helenskelton in my neck of the woods.

"We're not that far from Castleton and have been down the caves a lot as a kid (many years ago!). Love Castleton, hope you both did."

Another fan tweeted: "This looks worth a watch @helenskelton @mrdanwalker. I shall keep a lookout.

"You picked a cracking week to be yomping around!"
