Summary |
As the world commemorates the 100th anniversary of the race for Antarctic glory, a cast of well-known actors use readings from the diaries and letters of Captain Scott and those of his Norwegian rival Roald Amundsen - to tell the story of their epic South Pole expeditions in their own words. Some entries and letters are revealed for the very first time, including a last, loving letter to Scott from his wife Kathleen. The program features Dougray Scott (as Captain Scott), Max Irons, Alistair McGowan, and Lars Mikkelsen (as Amundsen). (From the UK) (Documentary) CC |
