Travel Documentary hosted by Zay Harding and Laura Guiauchain and Holly Morris, published by Pilot Productions in 2018 - English narration
Information
------------------------------
In this mini series we explore some of the most unique and hard-core truck journeys on the planet. Destinations in the six part series are Iceland, Guatemala, Turkey, Morocco, Ethiopia and Russia.
The "Tough Trucks" series takes you on roads where a small car can't manage. Sometimes we get stuck in mud in the rainforest or meander to the top of a glacier. However, the goal is not to ramble on the terrain, but to see sights and culture, such as the Guatemalan horse race, for which the contestants prepare by getting drunk.
The series takes you to exotic places, where roads don't even always have names. Some names, on the other hand, are deeply etched in history. Zay Harding travels in Siberia on the "Road of Bones", whose sinister name includes Stalin's prison camps and prisoners who died during road construction.
In the company of American Holly Morris, we will travel one and a half thousand kilometers in Turkey on the ancient Silk Road on the way of truck drivers. Goods still travel on the road, just as they did a thousand years ago - and you still get involved in political twists and turns on the winding roads.
Ancient trade routes are also in Morocco. The French Laura Guiauchain introduces the viewers to Ouarzazate, where the landscapes depicted are familiar from many Hollywood films. Game of Thrones fans may also see familiar-looking landscapes in the city, as well as the lava-covered landscapes in the episode introducing Iceland.
Our hosts take a series of truck journeys across these lands exploring the many fascinating cultural, natural and historical sites along the way, including unique geological locations in Iceland, ancient Mayan sites in Guatemala and rarely visited Silk Road destinations in Eastern Turkey.
Produced & Directed by Chris Ledger ; Pilot Film & TV Productions for PBS/American Public Television and Travel Channel International
2) Turkey: Silk Road
For thousands of years Turkey has been at the heart of Ancient trade routes linking China and Europe that have brought silk, exotic spices, new cultures and ideas through Turkey to the west and beyond. Trade on the Silk Road played a significant role in the development of civilisations, opening long distance political and economic relations between them. Today these routes still exist, on a larger scale and are carrying more than silk, spices and new ideas.
In this one hour film, presenter Holly Morris discovers who uses this famous Silk Road today, and how Turkey's history has shaped and impacted what remains. Travelling over 1000 miles from Ankara to Mt Ararat in the east, Holly uncovers the products and goods that are brought along the Silk Road routes, and the trucks and truckers that carry them.
