For those of you that can access PBS America this is on this afternoon at 1500, all 4 hours of it! I watched it on a trans-atlantic flight last year. Amazing programme and well  worth a watch if only for the photography

Tried to embed the video, but, it wasn't playing ball  :-\

Thanks for the heads-up Phil.  Seen it once and drove through some of the places last year.  I'll definitely record it as it is a superb programme.

Just remove the HTTPS and replace by HTTP
Or just delete the final S... it's simpler

it's a great series and there's a companion book that goes along with it too!
Both are great!
