    Couldn’t see a thread on this… the BBC iPlayer is currently hosting a three hour slow TV journey on the Ghan, from Adelaide through the middle of Australia (haven’t got to the end yet as I keep falling asleep). An amazing train and country.

    Apparently there’s a 16 hour version in Australia, but I’m not sure I’d get much further with that.

    It is what they call 'Slow television' Interesting at times but hardly gripping.
