06:00 Globe trekker

Join traveller Zay Harding on an epic adventure from the southernmost tip of Argentina all the way to Antarctica. In the outer Falkland Islands, Zay visits an albatross nesting colony, before heading to the capital Port Stanley to learn all about the 1982 conflict between Britain and Argentina. As the team sails to sub Antarctic South Georgia fur and leopard seals jostle for space with king penguins, while giant skuas swoop overhead with glaciers, green grass, sand beaches and floating icebergs as the rather dramatic backdrop. The final part of Zay's journey south sees the ship's course hijacked by floating pack ice. Forced to detour via the South Shetland Islands, he stops at King George Island, home to seven different country's Antarctic base stations. Humpback whales greet the ship's arrival before he steps foot for the first time on the world's coldest, windiest, and also fifth largest continent - Antarctica.

07:00 Great scenic railways - New Zealand

Situated in one of the most beautiful spots in New Zealand, the Flemish Renaissance-style Dunedin Railway Station is the starting point for a trip through the Taieri Gorge; traversing 20 high viaducts and plunging in and out of tunnels. Next up, a trip back to the days of the gold fever. The Kingston Flyer was designed to be a fast transport from the gold fields of the interior to the coastal city. While the gold rush slowed to a trickle by the time the line itself was actually completed, it was one of the fastest lines in the country. (Currently The Kingston Flyer historic line is closed.) Finally, climb aboard the century-old TSS Earnslaw for a gentler ride.
