This East African river journey begins on the snowy peaks of Mount Kenya where giant heathers and scarlet sun-birds adorn the banks of Kenya's major river system. The Tana flows through jungle, desert, bush and swamp, past rare monkeys, hippos and wildfowl, before the rich colour of this remarkable waterway finally fades into the vastness of the Indian Ocean.

Tommy Trinder. Charlie Chester Richard Murdoch , Arthur English Pat Kirkwood , Val Guest
