Offshore Britons

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

In six programmes, Derek Cooper visits just a few of the 1,000-plus inhabited islands that make up the British Isles. He talks to the islanders and reflects on life-styles often very different from that experienced on the mainland. 5: Guernsey
The most westerly of the Channel Islands, Guernsey was once a haven for pirates. Today it takes in UK tax evaders and earns the rest of its money from tourists and tomatoes.
