Tonight from BBC West: The West Country: From Avalon to Sedgemoor

Desmond Hawkins, author and broadcaster, takes an affectionate journey through Avalon and Sedgemoor - a part of Somerset rarely explored by the casual visitor. It is a country rich in legend and folk-lore with its echoes of Alfred, Arthur and the bloody Monmouth rebellion.
