All of the magic and majesty of England is captured in this historic collection. From the grandeur of Westminster and Churchill’s Chartwell to the simple charm of a quite country village, the beauty and heritage of Britain are exquisitely revealed.

A whimsical odyssey across rural England as author and broadcaster Nigel Farrell decides to escape the frustrations of the city and sets off in an old Morris Minor in search of the perfect village. His journey takes him to the beautiful villages of Bosham in Sussex; Lacock in Wiltshire; Drewsteignton in Devon; Finchingfield in Essex; and Coneysthorpe in North Yorkshire.
Disc 2: Westminster
What is it like to work in a palace, founded by William The Conqueror, rebuilt in Victorian Gothic Splendour in which for 700 years successive Parliaments have met? Tony Benn, regarded as a Parliamentary tradition, toured the palace for 12 months with his camera, talking to people who work there and filming places that visitors never see.
