Featuring seven countries, Clare Balding, Dan Snow, Denise Lewis, Anita Rani and Reggie Yates travel the globe uncovering the natural wonders of the Commonwealth. Dan Snow travels to Milford Sound, New Zealand where he kayaks alongside bottlenose dolphins. He then visits the world’s largest mangrove forest in Bangladesh where he meets the ‘the honey hunters’. The hives are not only guarded by bees but by the man eating Royal Bengal Tigers, making harvesting extremely dangerous. Anita Rani visits the oldest, driest desert on earth, the Namib in Africa where temperatures can reach 50°C. In Papua New Guinea, Anita encounters the incredible Raggiana bird and experiences tribal life. Reggie Yates journeys to the largest uninhabited island in the Solomons, surrounded by pristine coral reefs. He also encounters the skulls of cannibal Rovianan chiefs and the remains of their enemies which are still kept on one sacred island. Denise Lewis experiences the most spectacular waterfall on earth, the Victoria Falls, Zambia. At 1700m wide and 100m high it is twice the size of the Niagara falls. Back in Scotland Clare Balding follows in the footsteps of Felix Mendelssohn who was inspired by the volcanic Fingal’s Cave of Staffa.

  • Clyde Waterfront
    Clyde Waterfront Clyde Waterfront is the biggest regeneration project ever undertaken in Scotland. It brings together public and private sectors to rejuvenate 20km of the city alongside the River Clyde, from central Glasgow westwards past the towns of Clydebank, Renfrew and Erskine to Dumbarton. The initiative started in 2003 following the publication of an OECD report, ‘Urban Renaissance: Glasgow’, which recognised that the river Clyde area and its environs represent the city’s main under-utilised assets: people, land and buildings.1 Around 250 individual projects fall under the umbrella of Clyde Waterfront. Currently approximately one third of these are completed, one third is at the planning stage, and the other third are underway. The overarching Clyde Waterfront Regeneration Initiative (CWRI) seeks to develop a vibrant and thriving area around the River Clyde, with people and communities at its heart. The regeneration is based on the four themes of economy, place, people and connectivity. Two interlinked projects have been selected to illustrate best practice from Clyde Waterfront: NHS South Glasgow Hospital campus (NSGH): this will comprise a 1,109-bed adult hospital and 256-bed children's hospital with maternity services, able to treat 725,000 patients a year. Due for completion in 2015, it will be the biggest hospital in the UK. Fastlink: this is a transport project, promoting rapid transit ’tram on tyres’ energy efficient buses. The new routes will improve the connection of the city centre with areas that are difficult to access by public transport. The core route will connect the city centre to the SECC and Govan (NHS South Glasgow Hospital campus).
