Liverpool

Today's destination takes a ferry across the Mersey to the city of Liverpool. Miriam Margolyes narrates a whistle-stop trip around the city that is the birthplace of The Beatles, the Merseyside Derby and the crossword puzzle. The programme meets football fans on the Kop, learns the legend of the Liver birds, has a lesson in how to talk scouse, takes in two cathedrals and stands on the stage where the Mersey Beat started.
