Enjoy watching episode of ‘Great British Railway Journeys’ on the 12th September from 2030. In the first episode, Michael Portillo embarks on a train Journey from Coventry to Leamington spa. In Coventry, Michael recalls the destruction by the German Luftwaffe of the city’s gothic cathedral in November 1940. Heading south to Royal Leamington Spa, Michael visits the Guide Dogs for the Blind National Centre, established in the town in 1941.
We will also enjoy watching another episode of 'Great Coastal Railway Journeys', where Michael is in Southampton, and from the port, takes a ferry to the Isle of Wight, where he rides the island’s railway, made up of recycled London Underground trains. Finally, Michael reaches the Needles, the island's iconic chalk stacks where a top-secret Cold War operation took place to develop and test British space rockets.
