How do borders divide us and how do they quietly bring us together?
Join Devon-based travel writer Richard Collett for a fascinating journey through the UKs borderlands. Travelling by bus, boat, train and foot, he meets the people who
live on the edges of nations - nationalists and pub landlords, town criers, reenactors and refugee support workers - each shaping ideas of identity in unexpected ways.
Far from being fixed lines on a map, Collett shows borders as living, shifting spaces
where cultures meet, clash and merge.
