Airdate: Martin Clunes: Islands of America

In his latest travel series, Martin Clunes: Islands of America, the former Doc Martin star embarks on an epic 10,000 mile journey around the coast of America, from Hawaii, Alaska and New England to Puerto Rico and San Juan.

Episode 1:
Martin travels to two dramatically contrasting landscapes: lush, tropical Hawaii and snow-fringed glaciers of Alaska’s islands. In Hawaii, Martin looks beyond its image as a tourist sun-kissed surfers’ paradise and into the havoc wreaked by advancing lava fields and smoking craters. Meanwhile, in Alaska, the contrast couldn’t be more extreme: where snow and ice replace tropical warmth, and crowded beaches give way to some of America’s most sparsely populated territories.
