Overview

Nearly 1,400 years ago St Augustine made Canterbury the center of the Christian faith in England. This is an exploration of the road which leads from London to Canterbury - a road which has many associations with such historical figures as Chaucer, Henry VIII and his daughter Elizabeth, Shakespeare, Pepys and King Charles II. The journey ends with an exciting portrayal of the glorious cathedral of Canterbury.
