- Summary
- Acclaimed actor, raconteur and celebrated writer Peter Ustinov follows in the footsteps of Mark Twain and his 1898 published account of the epic journey he conducted around the globe - a time when the world was on the brink of a new century. Retracing Twin's steps, Sir Peter Ustinov provides his unique and thought-provoking wit with intelligent observation as he travels to Fiji before heading to Australia, New Zealand, Hawaii, India and South Africa. Peter mingles with the descendants of cannibals and Kings, evangelists, living gods and the everyday people who inhabit these cosmopolitan lands, plus a rare opportunity to meet Nelson Mandela aboard the QE2. Peter observes how have things changed since Mark Twain first visited 100 years ago, whilst revealing people's struggle to rediscover their lost heritage in a forever changing world. Blending travelogue, history with his own entertaining and challenging observations, join Sir Peter Ustinov on the journey of a lifetime in all four episodes from his final journey around the globe.
