Southampton to Isle of Wight
Michael heads from a bustling Southampton to the Isle of Wight, where he rides the island鈥檚 railway, made up of recycled London Underground trains.
Michael is in Southampton, one of the busiest ports on the south coast of England and home to the National Oceanography Centre. From the port, Michael takes a ferry to the Isle of Wight, where he rides the island鈥檚 railway, made up of recycled London Underground trains.
In the island鈥檚 hinterland, he discovers a highly specialised farm which produces up to 15 different types of garlic and hears of a daring wartime mission behind enemy lines to procure this pungent plant.
Finally, Michael reaches the Needles, the island's iconic chalk stacks where a top-secret Cold War operation took place to develop and test British space rockets.
