Intrepid presenter Nicholas Crane investigates eight epic journeys,
following in the footsteps of our greatest indigenous explorers.
Nick presents eight of the most interesting traveller-chroniclers
to have explored and reported on the state of the nation. From
Gerald of Wales who embarked on a seven week journey around the
wild perimeter of Wales in March 1188, to HV Morton, the journalist
and travel writer who crossed the length and breadth of England by
car in the 1920s. Others include Celia Fiennes who started her many
journeys around Britain on horseback in the late 1600s at the age
of 20, Tudor antiquarian John Leland, Daniel Defoe, William
Cobbett, Thomas Pennant, and William Gilpin, who travelled through
the north of England by boat in 1770.
