Stockholm to the Arctic Circle
Season 7 · Episode 6
Michael Portillo embarks on a thousand-mile journey from the Swedish capital of Stockholm to Abisko in the northern reaches of the Arctic Circle. In Stockholm, Michael braves a precarious tour of the city from its rooftops before boarding a heritage tram to get the lowdown on 1930s Sweden from an expert. Moving on, he finishes his journey deep in the Arctic Circle at a remote climate research station. He also has lunch with traditional Sami people in Vilhelmina and checks into an ice hotel
