Outlook

Available for over a year

Laredo is a functioning Wild West town built in southern England, lived in part-time by a dedicated community. At the weekends, residents adopt full period dress, and leave the 21st Century behind. It has been around for decades, but recently a devastating fire threatened to destroy Laredo for good. Presenter: Emily Webb (Photo: Laredo in Kent, England. Credit: BBC)
