How much do we really know about this place we call home? From a European peninsula of glacier and tundra to an island of cities and countryside, the British landscape has been occupied by humans from the end of the Ice Age to the present day. Join Nicholas Crane to discover the ancient relationship between people and place and the deep-rooted tensions between town and countryside, climate and population.

Nicholas Crane is an English geographer, explorer, writer and broadcaster presenting Coast, Great British Journeys, Map Man and Town series for BBC Two.
