Miranda Krestovnikoff wades out in the mud of the Wash, a vast tidal feeding ground for migrating birds. Miranda discovers the ingenious strategies that different birds use to fatten themselves up on the seafood of the Wash. Neil Oliver visits the birthplace of his seafaring hero Lord Nelson and explores the Norfolk shoreline that inspired the young Nelson to greatness. He finds the curious ship-shaped pond Nelson dug at the family home while not fighting the French. And off the Norfolk coast, Nick Crane explores the remarkable lost world of Doggerland, the home of the early Britons lost to sea some 10,000 years ago as sea levels rose after the last ice age.
