A Cabbie Abroad

Episode 3: Fiji

Duration: 58 minutes

First broadcast: on BBC Two HDLatest broadcast: on BBC Two HD

London cabbie Mason McQueen takes on the challenge of driving a taxi in three very different cities around the world. In this episode, he heads for the palm-fringed islands of Fiji.

As he joins the ranks of the island's capital, Suva and lives with his host Dharmendra Kumar, Mason soon discovers a very different Fiji to the tourist brochures - a country that has struggled with ethnic tensions, political unrest, military coups, a diabetes epidemic and acute poverty. It is all a far cry from the idyllic island life you might expect for a cabbie in paradise. Show less
