Pilgrimage the road to Istanbul

[Bella2017]

The second of this series is on bbc on tv tomorrow at 9pm. It is good to have something to look forward to in these difficult times.

It seemed to me to be pretty good, with the caveats that there are inevitably "celebrities" to boost viewing figures while I would prefer "ordinary people" who are usually much more interesting. But a nice combination of walking, religion, scenery, and local people who are great. Having said that, I love Spain and the Spanish so walking to Istanbul (even though much is done by motor transport, obviously) doesn't hold much fascination for me. But a good programme. Recommended.

Thanks for the reminder. I thought I had missed it.

I certainly enjoyed the first episode last week. A bit of a change from the usual TV fare

Episode 2 tonight. It seems as good as the CF & VF ones.

 

[Bella2017]

I think it’s better as the pilgrims all seem to be lovely not like in the first series

After the first episode I think that it may be the best yet, no real 'celebrity' celebrities and a good relationship and respect within the group. Looking forward to the rest of the series.

I look forward to sitting down later today to watch it, as I recorded it. I will not have time till later. I have decided to do the equivalent of a half day camino beginning at 07.30. I will post in the Where did you walk thread later! All conveniences readily at hand, and not even a daypack is required. Just grit, and an upward tilt of the head.

Thank you Bella for the reminder. I'd have missed it otherwise. I'm enjoying the programme very much.

Does anyone know if this is available in Canada? On Netflix, Appletv Prime or the like?

It's on the BBC iPlayer... can you use that in Canada?

Not sure. Will have to get my daughter to check it out.
