Sally asked if we'd seen any episodes of Long Way Round. I hadn't heard of it at the time. I did see that it was available from our mail-based DVD rental company though. I put Disc 1 on the bottom of our ziplist. Eventually, its position moved up thirty or forty slots. It arrived last week. Although only four episodes were on the first disc, and two of them dealt only with the planning, we got hooked and I moved up Disc 2 on the list so it'd arrive quickly. Here's the info as found at www.zip.ca:
Documentary, Travel & Adventure Documentaries - 2004
Two friends. One extraordinary journey around the world.
The adventure of a lifetime begins when two longtime pals, Ewan McGregor (Star Wars, The Island, Moulin Rouge) and Charley Boorman (Deliverance), set off on their motorcycles taking the "long way round" from London to New York: west along the rough terrain of Eurasia, across the Bering Straight, and covering 20,000 miles before completing their journey in New York City.
Long Way Round: The Entire Series includes ten 1-hour episodes, including a new episode that has never been broadcast on television.
