Land and Sea
Land and Sea is a locally produced Canadian documentary television show broadcast on CBC Television. It has been on the air since 1964 on CBC owned-operated station CBNT in St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador (interrupted only by a short cancellation in the early 1990s, but revived after an outcry from fans), and is the longest-running regional television program on CBC Television. Originally a black-and-white program, it began broadcasting in colour in the late 1960s. There is also a Maritime version of Land and Sea which is broadcast on the full CBC network on Sunday afternoons, and episodes from that version are often alternated with Newfoundland-based episodes.
Hosts
There have been several hosts of Land and Sea over the years. Dave Quinton was one of the TV series' original hosts.

Pauline Thornhill hosted the show until she retired in April 2022. Jane Adey took over hosting in fall 2022. Some episodes are narrated by Christopher Richardson or broadcaster Tom Murphy.
