A GUERNSEY man has had a large input into a new BBC 4 television documentary series that begins tonight. [Wed 8 Oct]
Dr Huw Lewis-Jones, 28, wrote part of the narration and was involved in the editing process for Wilderness Explored which looks at the changing ideas of the Artic, the Congo, and the Australian outback in three one-hour programmes.
‘The series examines the way our idea of wilderness has been shaped, and changed, over the years,’ said Dr Lewis-Jones (pictured).
‘In particular for the Arctic, how this plays out in modern debates about climate change and its effects, and the geopolitical scramble for resources in the North.’
Dr Lewis-Jones, a former student at Elizabeth College, is currently curator of art at Cambridge University.
