Great British Railway Journeys

SYNOPSIS

From Hassocks, Michael Portillo makes his way to the beautiful Sussex village of Ditchling, where between the wars, a Roman Catholic community of artists made their home. He finds out how they made their mark on the village, the capital, and the nation's railways. Then in the seaside town of Bexhill-on-Sea, Michael hears of the work of the wartime Air Raid Precautions wardens, immortalised in the BBC series, Dad's Army.
