Long Way Round (TV Miniseries)
Having set off from London in April 2004, Ewan McGregor and Charley Boorman travelled through some of the most beautiful, but often dangerous, terrain the world has to offer. Crossing over into mainland Europe, they travelled through France, Belgium, Germany, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Ukraine, Russia, Kazakhstan, Mongolia, Siberia, Alaska, Canada and three months later they arrived at their final destination, New York City, USA! Ewan and Charley had to survive in minus temperatures, ride their bikes cross country where it was so remote there were no roads, and protect themselves from wild animals. However, they also saw many beautiful sights that most of us only dream of, interacted with interesting people from many different cultures, and got involved in activities along the way that really gave them an insight into these remote regions of the world. All the while, Ewan and Charley were documented by Sky One. And now you can watch their adventure, coming to a small screen near you on October the 18th. This is a once in a lifetime adventure!
