Secret Britain is a 2010 BBC documentary series presented by Matt Baker and Julia Bradbury which first aired on BBC One Sunday 15 August 2010 at 9:00pm. The series explores some of the United Kingdom's hidden corners such as deserted beaches and tumbling waterfalls, showcasing the very best of what the British countryside has to offer.
The show focuses on a variety of areas of the British countryside, with a few minutes dedicated to each particular area of interest. Each of the segments is presented by either Matt or Julia, often being joined by a local expert or guide to explain more about the area.
Series 2 episode 1 "Water World Of Wales" helped maintain the secrecy of one of the sites covered by failing to mention the name of the standing stone sequence even though Maen Llia is within 30 yards of a minor road and a noted tourist attraction.
