Watch Aerial Britain

Over the centuries, the United Kingdom has influenced cultures across the globe and produced some of history's top artists, musicians, actors, and writers. In this episode, we explore Britain's finest cultural achievements and the people who created some of the world's most celebrated works of art, from Rockfield Studios in Wales and the streets of Liverpool where rock-and-rollers changed the face of music to the homes of Shakespeare, Roald Dahl, and JM Barrie to the landscapes that inspired the fantastical, fictional worlds.

Visit Britain's natural and man-made marvels, from Scotland's Great Glen to the castles of Wales to Hadrian's Wall.

Great Britain is a land of castles, kings, and queens, but its historic identity also encompasses a deep-rooted passion for the outdoors and a love of sport. Enjoy a scenic journey over national parks that have captivated mountaineers, cyclists, and horse riders, and the historic courts, fields, and courses where crowds cheer on sports such as tennis, golf, cricket, and soccer. We also explore the nation's fascination with horsemanship--from equestrian events to polo, "the sport of kings"--as well as another type of horsepower: motorsports. Soar over Wimbledon, St. Andrews, Guards Polo Club, and the Wales Coast Path.
