This episode's destination is south Wales and the Valleys. Miriam Margolyes is our guide as we explore this enchanting corner of Britain, where we bask on the beach at Barry, remember long-lost Tiger Bay and go for a spin in a Welsh sports car. Along the way we head down the mines, hear some heavenly male voice choirs and even meet a genuine Welsh witch on our wonderful Welsh whistle-stop tour.
