Tudortube


IS this the oldest Old Blue ever to inspire a TV series? The work of scholar and educator William Camden (CH c. 1560) underlies Nicholas Crane's Britannia: The Great Elizabethan Journey, currently running on BBC2. Crane takes a 5,000-mile hike to rediscover the landmarks featured in Camden's seminal travel log Britannia. (If you missed the first episode, never fear, it's still there on BBC iplayer).
