| Summary |
Acclaimed journalist Andrew Marr goes on an epic journey through one day in the life of Britain, as seen from the skies. From helicopters, planes, hang gliders and satellites he gives the big picture of a nation that is constantly on the move.Britain's beautiful, often mysterious and endlessly varied landscapes are seen from above. The camera swoops over the towns and cities showing familiar and less familiar buildings from a new angle. We meet the people whose work takes them high above the cities and towns to monitor and manage the many visible and invisible networks that keep everyone working, warm, fed and watered.Episode One reveals the transformation of Britain's most important city: her capital, London. It is the story of a capital that has been transformed from a low-rise, smog-ridden industrial city into an upwardly mobile, rapidly changing hub of leisure, retail and finance.PRODUCTION DETAILS:Executive Producer: Nick Catliff; Series Producer: Lucy Van Beek; Director: Nic Young.
