Eight explorations with Professor W. G. Hoskins
3: The Lake District - Conquest of the Mountains
The Lake District, a magnificent wilderness of mountains, tarns and fells, appears almost untouched by man. But man's influence on the landscape is everywhere, older than we think, and PROFESSOR HOSKINS claims the lakes are no exception.
'The landscape of the Lake District is really a man-made landscape, stretching back over 4-5,000 years. Two hundred generations of men and women have toiled in their various ways to create this landscape, so magnificent and yet so deceptive.'
Professor Hoskins - with stunning film - makes the land give up the secrets of its grain, as a detective might dust for fingerprints. (THE LISTENER) Film cameraman NAT CROSBY
Producer PETER JONES
