A ten-part natural history of Britain and Ireland
Presented by Julian Pettifer 2: Streams of Life
In its journey to the sea a river Way help carve the fells of the Lake District, plunge deep into the caves of Yorkshire's
Gaping Gill, vault over the waterfalls of South Wales, meander in a chalk stream,
Pause at an East Anglian fen, and finally, in an estuary such as that of the Severn, mingle With the waters of the sea.
Each stretch of river is home to wildlife that ever since the Ice Age has transformed fresh meltwaters into teeming streams of life.
