The Christmas special will air on December 28.<\/p>\n<p>This time around, <em>Extraordinary Escapes<\/em> will explore Devon, Cornwall, the Scottish Highlands, Wales, Norfolk and the Highlands and Islands. Accompanying Toksvig are Sue Johnston, Sunetra Sarker, Sarah Millican, Sara Pascoe, Jenny \u00c9clair and Phillipa Perry. For the Christmas special, Fay Ripley, Deborah Meaden and Maggie Aderin-Pocock will join Toksvig on a Scandinavian adventure.<\/p>\n<p>Both the series and Christmas special are produced by Tuesday\u2019s Child Television. It is distributed by All3Media International.<\/p>\n<p>Toksvig said: \u201cFilming the first series of <em>Extraordinary Escapes<\/em> was the most heavenly experience, so I&#8217;m delighted I get to spend yet more time in the company of six fabulous females against a backdrop of some of the country&#8217;s most beautiful bolt holes. I feel very lucky to have the opportunity to slowly wander through and admire the U.K.&#8217;s most tranquil landscapes\u2014all in the name of work.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Deborah Dunnett, commissioning editor for features and daytime at Channel 4, said: \u201cWe\u2019re delighted that the irresistible combination of Sandi\u2019s brilliant brain, wonderful warmth and fabulous female travel buddies was such a hit with viewers, and we are thrilled to be continuing the <em>Extraordinary Escapes<\/em> journey. The second series will be packed to the rafters with even more remarkable women, spectacular properties and stunning landscapes as Sandi plays travel guide extraordinaire once more.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Steph Harris from Tuesday\u2019s Child added: \u201cWhile both series have demonstrated that you don&#8217;t need to look far to find glorious escapism, the wonders of Norway with its breathtaking fjords, wild wolves, majestic whales and magical Northern Lights is Sandi&#8217;s once-in-a-lifetime Christmas gift to her three guests and promises a cracker of a festive special for viewers.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Extraordinary Escapes with Sandi Toksvig has been picked up for a second season and a Christmas special.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1033,"featured_media":17338,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[69],"tags":[289,5343],"class_list":["post-17337","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-channel-4","tag-extraordinary-escapes-with-sandi-toksvig","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 -
