An amazing journey in Norway's Far North as Joanna Lumley pursues a lifelong dream to track down the elusive, stunningly beautiful Northern Lights.

Joanna grew up in tropical Malaysia, and as a little girl never saw snow or felt cold. Inspired by fairytales and picture books, she always longed to make the journey north. At last she travels north across the Arctic Circle, up through Norway to Svalbard, the most northerly permanently inhabited place on Earth, where she has to cope with temperatures approaching minus 30 deg C.

With a box of crayons in hand, her journey takes her from train to boat, to husky-sled, to snowmobile, as she is pulled ever northwards by what she calls 'the strongest point of the compass'. She explores the romantic fjords of Lofoten and learns to ride a snowmobile, speeding across endless expanses of Lapland tundra with a Sami herdsman in search of his reindeer. As she reaches the Arctic Ocean, she prepares for bed in a hotel made entirely of ice. Everywhere she goes, she asks about the mysterious Northern Lights.

 Nature's Light Show

| | See all greylady's reviews (10)

Spectacular natural light show featuring the aurora borealis or Northern Lights - man couldn't create this if he tried. Breathtaking, awesome, the superlatives don't cover what you'll see in this well deserved DVD version of the BBC program which features Joanna Lumley in search of this mystical light show.

She is rewarded and so will you be if you purchase this DVD - only pity there seems no sign of it on Blu Ray. C'mon BBC get it sorted Blu Ray was made for this. Lumley's quirky personality provides a good counterpoint to her travels. Her responses to the people she meets and to the revelation that is the actual light show are both honest and moving.
