Mediterranean - Gibralter (9x7)

Fecha de emisión: Jul 08, 2005

At the very entrance to the Mediterranean Sea stands 'the Rock'. Gibraltar has been a British possession for exactly 300 years. In that time it has formed its own culture from the myriad of peoples who have come to live here, a culture that is neither Spanish nor British but unique to the rock. What is it like to live in a country that is only six and a half square kilometres with nearly thirty thousand inhabitants? Where soggy fish and chips share the table with tantalising tapas. Where each family has five cars and thus, there are more vehicles than parking spaces. Where the airport is a five-minute walk from town. And where do you go to get away from it all? Well, across the border to Spain, of course.
