My Favourite Place

The first episode follows comedian, musician and actor Bill Bailey on his prehistoric mystery tour around Stonehenge where he, in his own unique and inimitable style, uncovers the various theories as to why this famous landmark was built and what it is about the enigmatic setting that still baffles scientists today.

Interior designer Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen travels to South London’s Eltham Palace.
