Planet Ustinov

Isles of Paradise (1x1)

Air date: Nov 23, 1998

A century ago Mark Twain journeyed around the world and described his experiences in a book called 'Following The Equator'. 100 years later, Sir Peter Ustinov is to follow in his footsteps, and with his passport and walking stick packed, this is set to be one of his greatest adventures. This unique, witty, thought-provoking journey begins on the Pacific Island of Fiji and remote Kiribati - featuring characters such as an exiled Scot who teaches the highland fling to Fijian school children. With humour, compassion and an insight into the changing world, this makes for provocative and exciting viewing.
