With 50 people, 75 buildings, and an occasionally dark past, Pitcairn Island's about as isolated as it's possible to get on Earth; more than 5,500 kilometres from New Zealand and just about slap bang in the middle of the South Pacific Ocean.
A new show called 'Extremities' finds out what it's like to live in some of earth's most remote and extreme settlements. And Pitcairn- this tiny British Overseas Territory with close ties to New Zealand- is the show's first stop.
Host Sam Denby outlines the hideous 6 day journey from the UK to visit this other part of the UK, and explores the island's history, what you'll find there, and its convoluted constitutional arrangements.
We play some of Episode 1 of 'Extremities' called 'Arrival on Pitcairn' hosted by Sam Denby, written and produced by P.J. Scott-Blankenship and Sam Denby, and edited by Eric Schneider for Wendover Productions.
