Michael Portillo is on the last leg of his railway journey. In East Malling, he discovers that the Edwardians’ serious attitude towards cultivation bore fruit. In Folkestone, Michael hears how the town coped with more than 100,000 refugees from Belgium fleeing the German invasion of 1914. Hiss last stop is Rye, where he tours the home of one of his favorite authors, Henry James.
