Taking as their starting point a quintessentially British subject, something that is world-renowned, our celebrity takes us on a voyage of discovery where they explain and explore their passion behind their particular choice. They reveal why this particular aspect of Britain has a place in their heart and they argue the case for why their chosen subject or object deserves to be celebrated. Witty, sharp, revelatory - and always surprising - these films give us a snapshot of Britain today through the eyes of some of Britain's best-known faces.
