Some really striking moments, tales and experiences. A wonderful way of exploring Britain through its far-flung outer edges that have remained odd and historical places. 

Just didn't fully hit for me, I wasn't transported in the way I hoped I would be. Perhaps it was my fault for not paying enough attention but there was something that felt a bit surface-level about some of the stories which I don't think was aided by hearing snippets of Albinia's home life which gave the feeling of only seeing the tip of the iceberg for these places and histories.

I thought this would be about geography and politics. The whole Sacred Feminity vibe doesn't appeal to me at all.
