To the ends of the Earth

Experience the incredible story of the Transglobe Expedition with a special screening of the classic 1983 documentary To the Ends of the Earth, narrated by Richard Burton. This powerful film chronicles the epic journey of the 1979-1982 Transglobe Expedition, the first-ever north-south circumnavigation of the Earth without leaving its surface.

Captured through specialist all-terrain photography and 16mm footage shot by expedition leader Sir Ranulph Fiennes, this rarely screened documentary offers an explorer’s-eye-view of one of the most daring human endeavours in history.

The film is not only a testament to the resilience and determination of the team but also a tribute to Lady Ginny Fiennes, who conceived the expedition and became the first woman awarded the Polar Medal for her extraordinary contributions.
