Rene Cutforth visits Sweden, land of the Vikings Anonymous.
Through the long days of a Swedish summer "to be flesh in contact with sun is to know fulfilment." The landscape is breathtaking, and the blondes are the most beautiful in Europe.
Rene Cutforth, who describes himself loosely as 'one of nature's Swedes', takes on the guise of a nordic storyteller to utter dark warnings for the Western World.
"Quite recently they have been set free from God and sin and poverty for a start, and it seems to me a very good start. But has it all left a vacuum?
The Swede has simply ironed himself right out in favour of some damned silly machine that works in a social way - he's a slide-rule."
