Secret Scotland (UK)
In this travel documentary 4'11" comedian Susan Calman travels around her native Scotland uncovering the secrets behind famous historical places.
Scotland is gorgeous, and this documentary is both beautifully filmed and genuinely informative. But the draw here is Calman's folksy presence. Her everywoman style serves as the perfect counterpoint to 1,000 year old castles and sweeping, majestic landscapes. The show moves at a wonderfully relaxed pace, and it will keep you grinning every step of the way.
