About this Broadcast
Season 1, Episode 2
The second leg of Simon's journey takes him from the fjords of Norway across the North Atlantic to Iceland, known as the land of fire and ice. It's a world of extremes and contradictions, from a country that's been described as the Kuwait of Europe to an island that lives under the constant threat of earthquakes and volcanic eruptions
