PRESS CLIPPING: GREAT BRITISH RAILWAY JOURNEYS - BBC2 (22 January 2010)
Michael Portillo takes to the tracks with a copy of George Bradshaw's Victorian Railway Guidebook. In a series of four epic journeys, he travels the length and breadth of the country to see how the railways changed us, and what of Bradshaw's Britain remains.
His journey takes him along the Brunel's Great Western Railway from Swindon to Penzance. This time, Michael searches for the lost church of St Piran, explores the last working tin mine in Cornwall (South Crofty) and harvests oysters on the Helford River.
