Michael Palin's Pole to Pole, a 9-episode journey along the 30th meridian made in 1991 just as all the countries were collapsing. I was particularly interested in how state markets work in the Soviet Union (a bureaucratic madhouse), and I always wondered what was on that northern island (Swedenborg). Now I know. Always genial, Palin takes us through Europe and Africa (not easy), suffering many setbacks along the way. 7 years 4 months ago
