Actually quite interesting - Grand Tours of Scotland's Lochs: Series 1 review by CP Customer
Despite thinking this was a mis-spelling of Merton I found Paul Murton's guide to the lochs pretty good. A few places we recognised and yet were still pleasantly surprised to find out interesting new tales. He even mentions the midgies.
