I decided to go to a Bullfight in Portugal because they don't actually kill the bulls. Ultimately I found this even worse.

In this episode of Great Continental Railway Journeys Michael Portillo travels through Switzerland. He begins with my hometown Basel and interviews a professor from my university.
How nice for you. 
Mr.Portillo presents a very good programme AND he listens to what people say and shows a genuine interest, not the usual "noddies"
