Ellie Harrison, Chris Hollins and Denise Lewis explore Kent.

Twenty-three million people arrive in the UK via Kent every year - most of them on their way somewhere else. Local boy Chris sees his home county through new eyes. He experiences a change of heart about the strange bleak beauty of the North Kent marshes when he discovers the secrets of its past.

Denise abseils off the white cliffs of Dover in search of a rare plant Kentish peasants risked their lives to harvest 500 years ago, and Ellie takes to the sea on a mission to get access to Kent's furthest outpost.
