Voyage of the Heroes

BBC Two
on BBC Two England

The last of four programmes written and narrated by Libby Purves
Tim Severin and his modem Argonauts are becoming something of a legend themselves. A Turkish balladeer sings of the boat and its 'crazy captain' who has rowed and sailed nearly 1,500 miles in search of the Golden Fleece. Now comes the highpoint of the voyage - landfall in Soviet Georgia and the final search for clues to the truth behind the legend. When Jason landed 3,000 years ago, he had to overcome an unsleeping serpent. Severin and his crew are more in danger from the hospitality.... Assistant producer
