- Trivia Michael Portillo travels across the European continent with his handy Bradshaw guide book.
[introduction to each episode]
Michael Portillo : I'm embarking on a new railway adventure that will take me across the heart of Europe. I'll be using this - my Bradshaw's Continental Railway Guide, dated 1913 - which opened up an exotic world of foreign travel for the British tourist. It told travellers where to go, what to see, and how to navigate the thousands of miles of tracks criss-crossing the Continent. Now, a century later, I'm using my copy to reveal an era of great optimism and energy, where technology, industry, science and the arts were flourishing. I want to rediscover that lost Europe that, in 1913, couldn't know that its way of life would shortly be swept aside by the advent of war.

Great Continental Railway Journeys
6 x 60 mins
Michael Portillo embarks on a series of railway journeys across Europe, armed with his 1913 Bradshaw’s Guide. In 1913, Europe was criss-crossed by a network of railways stretching from Finland in the North, to Constantinople in the East, and Cadiz in the West, all of them described in 'Bradshaw’s Continental Railway Guide and General Handbook'. This comprehensive guidebook opened up an exotic world of foreign travel to the Edwardian British tourist; glittering cosmopolitan cities, dramatic Alpine landscapes, warm sparkling seas and picturesque villages. Building on the success of Great British Railway Journeys, Michael Portillo embarks on a series of railway journeys across Europe. Armed with his 1913 Bradshaw’s Guide, he travels from station to station, visiting the towns and villages described by the Guide, following the suggested itineraries, staying in the recommended hotels, exploring the sights, sampling local traditions while telling the story of Europe in 1913. Great Continental Railway Journeys was first broadcast on BBC Two in 2012.
