The Last Wilderness: 1: Britain and Antarctica

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

The first of two programmes in which Falklands reporter Robert Fox returns to the South Atlantic to join HMS Endurance on her Antarctic survey. They travel to South Georgia, Bird Island and eventually to Brabant Island on the Antarctic peninsula. What are the people, the 'explorer-scientists' who live there, really like and what do they find to love in those barren wastes?
