Geography on TV

A new topic for the blog but I think it is important to realise that Geography is discussed in many different forms of media. I think TV is perhaps the most accessible and relevant of all media for our students:



This week:



Life - BBC1 Monday 9pm - shown on BBC iplayer for one week after orginal airing. This week a look at various fish species including sea dragon, fringehead and Hawaiian goby.



Ray Mears - BBC2 Sunday - 8pm - The Company that built a Country - Ray tells the story of the British fur trade company that opened up Canada - shown on BBC iplayer for one week after orginal airing.



Countryfile - BB1 Sunday - 7pm - Matt Baker and Julia Bradbury find out about Alnwick Castle's connection with Guy Fawkes - shown on BBC iplayer for one week after orginal airing.



Charley Boorman: Sydney to Tokyo by any means - In Taiwan, Charley visits the country's largest Buddhist monastery, Fo Guang Shan - catch on on BBC iplayer



Enjoy!!
