The line between information and entertainment has more than blurred in recent years – it simply doesn’t exist. The Journey of a Lifetime series, filmed in the early 1960s does both rather innovatively.
The two-season, 39-episode series – not seen for decades and now out as a DVD box-set – follows newlywed couple Anne and John Browning as they tour the biblical sites of the Holy Land. Part travel diary, part history lesson and part pilgrimage, their trip to Israel and the Near East is scripted like a soap opera.
