A six-part TV rendition of Bill Bryson's top-selling book, produced by Richard Lightbody. The anglophile US author travelled across the British Isles, meeting notable citizens and celebrities on the way. He often stopped to praise or patronise architecture, street furniture and the oh-so-very English way of life. If one enjoys Bryson, it is quite a good series.
