Looking foward to it...

"Joanna Lumley attempts to realise her life's ambition in a one-off special film for BBC One.

Travelling north across the Arctic Circle up through Norway and finally to Svalbard, Joanna takes viewers on a very personal journey as she hopes to see the spell-binding Northern Lights in Joanna Lumley: Land Of The Northern Lights"

I wonder if BBC America will show it. I'd love to see it.

Kim, I think it is the type of programme BBC America show, so you might be in luck. Joanna was on Richrd & Judy the other week and they showed this clip from it...

I'll keep an eye out for it then. I just clicked on the link you provided but they took the video off. I wonder why?

Hmm...I just get the message that the video is no longer available. I'll go check BBC America and see if the show is available there.

Well I just checked and it seems that it's not being shown here. At least not this week. Maybe one day...sigh..

I'd like to see this, too. This is one of the problems with being an Anglophile on the wrong side of the pond. I remember they showed Joanna Lumley in the Kingdom of the Thunder Dragon once, but it was in my pre-TNA days, and I wasn't interested, alas.

It seems that any videoblogs and podcasts to YouTube made by the BBC (including BBCWorldwide, bbcworldnews, BBCCollective) can only be seen in the UK territories.
