Last summer famous Comedian and Scottish actor Billy Connolly spent 10 weeks travelling from Canada’s east to west coast and along the way explored some of Canada’s most remote northern locations. A massive success in both the UK and Canada the TV show showcased Canada’s north on an off the beaten track discovery of all things that most people will never see. The ten episodes include some amazing footage of what must be the most beautiful country in the world. If you didn’t manage to catch this on TV do not worry it is being released on DVD for the Canadian Audience in May and you can pre-order your copy here.
If you want to see what you missed check out the trailer below and consider that there is also a hardback book of the series that would make an amazing coffee table book. Lets hope Billy Connolly comes back to Canada soon and does another series like this. Simply Amazing.

Dear Sirs:
Re: Journey to the Edge of the World
We have only watched the first four episodes of this remarkable documentary. We have lived in Canada for nearly forty years and never shared such a detailed, caring and amazing journey. It takes a Scot like Billy Connolly to bring his obvious sense of passion to the most sensitive areas of our beautiful country. Can’t wait to see the other episodes and will buy the DVD … absolutely great show.

Hi,
I just finished watching the last episode of this amazing series. I think Billy and his crew did such a great job of showing the sheer size and diversity of Canada. What a trip he did! Can only dream of doing a trip like that any time soon.
I also want to purchase this DVD when it comes out. Chapters/Indigo lists the DVD as a pre-order, the DVD coming out May 25th.
I hope this helps you!
Enjoy the rest of the episodes.

In the last episode Billy visits a woman named Nancy who runs (ran?) a guest ranch out of Telegraph Creek. There is no mention of how to contact her or if she is still accepting guests. Is there any way of finding this out? I would love to visit that area and her lifestyle attracts me, as I cut my own wood for heat as well, although am not quite as old (yet).

What a fantastic series. The sights and the people Billy encountered were amazing and REAL. I am more than ever proud of being Canadian and to share a fellowship with such distinguished countrymen. Thanks for the journey.
