The Last Flying Boat

BBC Two
on BBC Two England

In this Bafta award-winning documentary, writer Alexander Frater retraces the Imperial Airways route from Cairo to the Cape in a flying boat. The adventure takes him down the White Nile to the Rift Valley lakes of Kenya and on. Frater finds civil wars, cyclones and bungling bureaucracies more the order of the day than champagne and smoked salmon. Director David Wallace
