Introduced by June Knox-Mawer direct from Douglas, Isle of Man.
This year the Manx celebrate their 'millennium' - 1,000 years of their parliament, Tynwald.
Woman's Hour looks at some of the special events they've organised, including the sailing of two replica Viking vessels from Norway to the island.
We browse among their souvenirs, which range in shape from china cats to three-legged boomerangs, and in price from 50p to £1,000.
And we taste traditional Manx cuisine. There's more to it than kippers.
