IIRC "stranger on the shore" was the theme to a tv programme back in the 60s.
Indeed.

Stranger on the Shore is a British television drama serial first broadcast by the BBC in 1961. It was written by Sheila Hodgson, and produced and directed by Kevin Sheldon. The five-episode series portrays Marie-Hélène Ronsin, a young French teenager, on her first trip to England as an au pair. Speaking some English, but very shy, she lives with a family in Brighton, and faces the challenges of culture shock. The series was followed the following year by a sequel, entitled Stranger in the City.
Acker Bilk's "Jenny" was renamed "Stranger on the Shore" when it was chosen as the theme for the series.[1] It was subsequently released as a single, spending 55 weeks in the UK singles chart[2] and becoming the best-selling record of 1962 in the U.S. chart.[3]
