It’s Great! Britain and
it IS!

![]() ![]() The great sites of Britain are easily recognizable. Big Ben, Parliament, Tower Bridge, Stonehenge and so on. But unless you have a cousin to take you around the countryside, you might miss some of the greatest treasures to be found here. Filmmakers Monty and Marsha Brown return
to Monty’s homeland in this journey throughout the English, Scottish and Welsh countrysides.
They call on some of Monty’s British cousins, and go in search of
the family history. Indeed, this is more than an average
tourist adventure. Monty and Marsha, accomplished musicians and recording
artists, frequently join in with local musicians,
making music with their English friends
and neighbors. There’s little
formality needed - any old pub will do - and But there’s more than just music. There are great stone circles tumbled around the countryside. There are giant white horses cut from chalk hillsides. There are stories of Robin Hood, and strange, mysterious, haunting ghost dogs. Walk along Hadrian’s Wall,
a remnant of the Roman attempt to civilize ancient Britain. Meet famous writers Thomas Hardy, Robert “Robbie” Burns, Dylan Thomas and T.E. Lawrence, the legendary “Lawrence of Arabia.” Inevitably,
after a long day of seeing the sights of England, Scotland and Wales,
there’s time to relax, pick up a guitar or harmonica or fiddle, and
pitch in at the pub for a pint and a local folk
tune. It’s Great! Britain. It’s all great fun. |
