Andalucia

Season 1 Episode 6 of 8

Michael journeys through Andalucía to uncover Almería, an often-overlooked city once central to Spain's film industry. From the vast Alcazaba fortress and its Islamic gardens to the city's iconic pink Americano drink, he traces Moorish influence and cinematic history. He explores Spaghetti Western film sets, and learns to bar brawl with a professional stuntman. Michael also visits a cave lined with clear crystals, spends the night in Cabo de Gata, and dances the fandango

Spain with Michael Portillo airs on 5 at 8:00 PM, Thursday 12 February. (Subtitles, new.)
