“ In this program we are going on a journey from the Roman invasion to the Channel Tunnel because the story of Britain begins by the sea.
Britain is an island and our geography has had a massive impact on how we see the rest of the world. The sea has shaped us from being invaded to mastering the art of sea faring, from fish and chips to cups of tea. And it can make us quite xenophobic, but at the same time being confined to an island has made us want to explore the world and rule the waves.
In this program, the team has picked out 10 things to do with the sea that make us who we are today…”
