Documentary travels the length and breadth of Britain

In the mid-1920s, a filmmaker took a motor car from Land’s End to John O’Groats and recorded his journey.

In The Lost World of Friese-Greene (BBC/BFI, €24.99) Dan Cruickshank retraces his footsteps, discovers how much England has changed, and even meets relatives and friends of those captured in the original.

An absorbing series, with extended interviews with those Cruickshank met on his journey.
