    Dimbleby at his best.

    I watched the first disk which covered Scotland , North of England and East Anglia. It is so well made that I could not switch it off. You really get an intimate connection with each area and David Dimbleby just makes you feel you are there with him. Decided there and then to buy the two disk set to own myself.

    The 'Art' of a good TV series!

    Even if you are not interested in Art/Paintings, this series is just as much about The British Isles. The locations explored in this series are awe inspiring. Beautifully shot and a polished well informed presentation from David Dimbleby.
