"See the natural beauty and man-made wonders of England from a stunning vantage point
From the magnificent White Cliffs of Dover to historic Hadrian’s Wall, from Stonehenge to Big Ben, Brighton, Bath and beyond, see England as never before. A helicopter-mounted camera surveys this land of history and mysteries, literature and fairy tales, castles and conquerors. An informative narrative and an eclectic complement the spectacular views.
In the South, highlights include Cheddar Gorge and Southampton. In the North, visit Liverpool, home of the Beatles, and history-rich York. In London, get a new view of familiar sights. For the literary-minded, enjoy visits to Shakespeare’s Stratford-upon-Avon and the moors of Lorna Doone. Sports fans will thrill to the view of Wimbledon, and royal watchers will enjoy a king’s ransom of castles. Includes 19 minutes of bonus footage not seen on public television."

Summary: Hail Britannia! ~ A Sight To See
Comment: Much like most of you out there I first became acquainted with the `Vision Series' of aerial travelogue features on PBS television. Whenever I came upon one while channel surfing I'd immediately put the remote down and sit back and relax. It wasn't long before I decided these programs were something I'd never tire of watching and needed to be added to my private DVD collection.
Released in '05, `Visions of England' is the third production in the series. As with the previous two (Greece and Italy) immediately the audience is whisked away high above the maddening crowd to view an England, both urban and rural, in breathtaking fashion. The music is beautifully in sync with the visuals as is the narration. A treat to be enjoyed by the traveler in all of us.

Comment: Takes me back time and again. I love England and it helps with being 'homesick' for that beautiful country.
Customer Rating:
Summary: A Fun Travel DVD
Comment: I can only echo what the other reviewers have written about "Visions of
England" the only complaints I have with it are the music is quite different from what I heard on PBS, There is no listing of the music pieces in the booklet, which would have been a nice addition to the booklet. As some of the reivewers wrote there is so much more scenery that could have been put on the disc. Though as it is a nice time can be spent watching this DVD which can be said about any of the "Visions" series.
