A Journey Through The Borders & Scotland (1x2)

Data di messa in onda: Gen 13, 2009

Nicholas Crane visits parts of Britain that were largely unknown until William Camden wrote his encyclopaedic account of the British Isles. Britannia is an Elizabethan 'lost' masterpiece describing the mountans and rivers of Britain, its climate, its customs and people like it had never been seen before. On the Scottish leg of a 5,000-mile journey, Nick discovers there's still gold in them hills, witches in Athol, Britain's only true remaining wilderness, and a spirit of independence that makes some Scots today as uncertain about union with England as their ancestors were in 1600
