What makes men want to drive further and further south into the Antarctic? The continent contains almost nothing but ice and the prospect of hardship. In this programme John Hillaby talks to explorers who link the Heroic Age of Scott and Shackleton with the great adventures that lie ahead. It concerns journeys into the last great unmapped section of the world.
