Great Train Journeys
I might be biased, but may I warmly commend Michael Portillo's look at Switzerland in Great Continental Railway Journeys? Broadcast last week but still available on iPlayer: Great Continental Railway Journeys - Switzerland.

Splendid programme, presented lovingly by the man who seems to have seamlessly morphed from egregious leader of the Thatcherite Revolutionary Guard to floppy old national treasure.

The whole thing is interesting IMO, but for a little glimpse of where I live, check out 28:10 to 28:50-ish.

Où sont les soleils d'antan? Nice to be reminded of the summer. Lots of snow around at the moment. Nearly slid down the side of a hill coming home from work in the dark and sleet this evening.
