Griff Rhys Jones retraces some famous routes across the UK.

1. Royal Progress
Griff Rhys Jones goes on a Tudor adventure as he retraces the route that Queen Elizabeth I took
through the Cotswolds and into the West Country on what was one of her regular 'progresses' through
her realm. Winding through the heart of some of England's most stunning countryside he tracks her
journey from Windsor to Bristol. Griff reconstructs the enormous baggage train the queen took with
her; he tries out some Elizabethan forms of transport, and visits some of the stunning castles and
stately homes she visited. He discovers what the queen ate, how she slept and what amused her in a
trip that was as much about politics as it was about leisure. Unearthing gems of Tudor architecture
that she would have seen, recreating a sense of the landscape she would have enjoyed, and digging up
actual accounts of her visits to the towns, Griff gets a sense of the nation's love and adulation
for the great queen, and the excitement, expense and logistics that lay behind this early royal
walkabout.
