Summer in Arcadia

on BBC Television

with Compton Mackenzie
This enchanting countryside of south-west France reminds me of my early youth in Dorset and Hampshire-no green belt or suburbia but the real country of once upon a time. This is one little bit of Europe that is left without tourists.
A film showing the surroundings in which Sir Compton Mackenzie has chosen to live and work during the summer months.
BBC film: first shown on December 6
