We're pleased to announce the release of another new title. Inside the National Trust is a 5 DVD set in which journalist Michael Buerk goes behind the scenes at 5 National Trust locations where he meets some of the dedicated army who look after Britain's heritage. As he rolls up his sleeves as a Georgian manservant, guinea pig for 1770s style make-up, painstakingly cleaning a priceless chandelier, learning the ancient craft of hedgelaying, photostalking deer, risking the wrath of puffins as he sticks his hand down burrows for a crucial count, helping to lamb a ewe or lining up for the National Scything Championships, you'll see the doughty war reporter and journalist in a very different guise.
Each episode is packed with surprises and secrets and reveals just what it takes to ensure the survival of Britain's magnificent heritage. And we meet the unsung heroes behind the scenes who go to extraordinary lengths to safeguard it on our behalf.
Featuring:
Wimpole Hall, Cambridgeshire
Wordsworth House, Cockermouth
The Lake District
The Fame Islands
Sizergh Castle. Lake District
