  • "Across seven time zones and through all extremes of weather, the writer and TV Presenter Jonathan Dimbleby, makes an epic journey through the vast and varied landscapes of Russia, killing clichés and revelling in the unpredictable. This landmark BBC series opens with Dimbleby driving over the tundra inside the Arctic Circle. It is the short summer season when the snow melts and the sun never sets. Ahead of him lie 10,000 miles of hard travelling, through a country that is not only the largest in the world but also, perhaps, the most awe-inspiring. Look through one window, and you see an authoritarian regime trying to modernise itself into an oil-rich economy. Look through another, and you see exuberant people enjoying new opportunities but struggling with old problems, the marker stones of their turbulent past painfully evident. Dimblebys exhilarating journey by boat, train, truck and foot is heart-warming, entertaining and compelling viewing."
  • "Episode 1 ends in Moscow. Episode 2 is about the countryside south of Moscow, in particular Tolstoy's estate. Episode 3 follows the course of the Volga river with a visit to the city of Samara. Episode 4 explores the city of Ekaterinburg. Episode 5 explores Siberia's Lake Baikal, Chita, near the Chinese border and Vladivostok."
  • "British presenter Jonathan Dimbleby explores Russia, journeying 10,000 miles by road, rail and foot from the Arctic Circle to Siberia, meeting locals along the way. Visits Murmansk, Karelia, St Petersburg, Beslan, the course of the Volga river, Ekaterinburg and Vladivostok."
  • "In television's first comprehensive journey through the vast and varied landscapes of Russia, the resourceful Jonathan Dimbleby makes an epic journey from one end to the other, killing cliches and revelling in the unpredictable. Across nine time zones and through all extremes of weather, Dimbleby seeks out the people of this strange and extraordinary land. From the Arctic Circle where the summer sun never sets to the subzero wastes of Siberia, from white witches to hirsute masseurs, from oil wells to shamans, Dimbleby's journey by boat, train, truck and foot is heart-warming, entertaining and compelling."
