Eight explorations with Professor W. G. Hoskins 2: Breckland and Broads
Who would believe that East Anglia has its own desert? Yet in a way that is what the Breckland is. PROFESSOR HOSKINS asks how this came about, and compares this arid and little-frequented part of East Anglia with the watery and Popular landscape of the Broads. In both areas, a cold climate, the need for fuel, and disasters of wind and water have played their part in the making of the landscape.
A ravishing portrait o] Breckland and the Broads. (DAILY MAIL) Film cameraman MIKE RADFORD Producer PETER JONES
