Joanna Lumley's Nile: Egypt | History Documentary | Reel Truth History

[@edzfranco9090]

Can't she simply tour the whole world and narrate it to us? She is EXCEPTIONAL!

[@SarahSkilton]

Along side David Attenborough, Joanna Lumley is my most favourite narrator. Her voice is mesmerising like David's and her injections of humour are perfect. I am hooked.

[@CStewart75204]

Agreed!

[@sammansfield21]

Just imagine a colab❤

[@Aceof2Hearts]

Joanna is an accomplished actress but her personal sense of adventure, passion to culture and arts, spontaneity and humour make this video most entertaining to watch. Love her.

[@NotMyName888]

MOST entertaining indeed! Oh yes, I'd say so. (:

[@guitarhero849]

I could fall asleep listening to her tell these stories

[@bluelotus9654]

No longer watch her due to her pushing for vaccine passports.

[@ellieengel2188]

she makes everyone feel comfortable and ''at her level'' she has a lot of respect for anyone she speaks to and for each tradition and custom

[@melissaphillips3088]

She has my vote for woman of the year! Love that she doesn’t let anything stop her adventurous spirit!♥️ She does everything with class and humor.

[@bekindtoyourmother]

The look on her face when being told the stones to build the pyramids levitated themselves and the incantations etc was priceless. Proof of her acting skills but her kindness as well.

[@claires9100]

Yes, she is so classy. Just stays diplomatically quiet.

[@lemekid]

This lady is the best documentary presenter I have ever come across.

[@NextWorldVR]

Yes. I find her to be, 'Absolutely Fabulous'!

[@dawnrowan8327]

[@sandrareihana2559]

I absolutely enjoy the way Joanna presents the Nile, the land and the people. Joanna just naturally melts in with the people she meets and love her sense of humour.

[@franklinstephen3268]

Hello how’re you doing?

[@JWAChicago]

Joanna Lumley is simply wonderful. Full of energy, curiosity and kindness. She makes me laugh, intrigued and glued to the screen. She makes this series!!

[@vpoetic]

Joanna Lumley has such a soothing voice. I really love watching her series.

[@darkhaven87]

I love Joanna and I have watched ALL of her travel series in netflix. I can watch these over and over again. There is something about her that is so mesmerising...Joanna exudes class, sophistication, and she is so very kind and respectful towards other people and culture. I would love to watch more of her travel series in netflix!!

[@aclem8246]

Joanna is so funny. She makes what would be just another documentary on the Nile interesting and shows a good deal more of things as they really are.

[@AidaJof]

My friends and I toured Egypt in early 2011; during this tour I had realized a long life dream I had since childhood mesmerized by the glossy photos from my grandfather's encyclopedia. The visit did not disappoint but went onto confirm my love for Ancient Egypt, which was topped up by the charm and warmth of its people. I loved this series and I love Egypt!

[@agahwr9921]

Hi, I visited Egypt 23 Times, travelled across the country using local transport. What an experience👍

[@ericellis3506]

Joanna Lumley what a charming lady. Born in India in 1946, and blessed with the spirit of adventure.

[@xoxo-dr8df]

Never a dull moment with Joanna! Her voice can cure.

[@marianaandrews6274]

I love Joanna Lumley. She's so non- judging and looks for beauty and fun everywhere. She's also so lovely to everyone she meets

[@kashaneka]

Joanna is very much suited to be a tour guide. Her descriptions give me a feeling of being there.

[@petermugambi9122]

Fallen in love with Joanna, a wonderful smile, velvet voice, adventurous , respectful and down to earth.

[@adriel7540]

Joanna is thoroughly delightful, such a captivating guide, storyteller, and narrator.

[@EustaquioSantimano]

This is my third time watching this video. I love Joanna Lumley, she is smart, passionate, very witty and her voice is mesmerising and addictive. I also love watching the Nile as it brings back a lot of beautiful memories of our trip on the Nile. I was awestruck that the Temples were 5,000 year old which has left an impression on me forever !!

[@tracym9763]

Is she not just lovely? I think Joanna was simply born with style and grace. As a westerner in the center of the US, I have followed Joanna Lumley’s career for years and simply love all her charms.

[@LuisPerez-ik1zx]

Tracy M you're not born with it. It's bred into you or not.

[@22942]

To be able to travel in luxury, with a guide and not have to worry about money? I think I could do that. Watching Joanna is a great pleasure in itself, and a treat to the senses. For me at least, beautiful a woman as she is, I find her voice the best part of her. Sensuous and soothing at the same time.

[@renatedebruyn9612]

I believe she is the voice of AOL "You've got mail". She does have an extraordinary voice. 😊

[@elizabethbower2168]

What a fabulous program… It’s 2020 so I’m in armchair travel… Thank you so much for sharing this with us

[@AidaJof]

LOL - armchair traveller, just like the rest of the human race

[@Chris73388]

She is fascinating. She is the best presenter of a documentary

[@palalabu]

i worked on the subtitle for this show in 2011. i think it was for ep 2 and 3, and those episodes made me really want to go to egypt. luckily i got the opportunity to do so a year later. i really need to thank this show. and i'm glad i found it on youtube now!

[@sabrinaphillips916]

This woman is an absolute treasure! have always adored her in everything especially AbFab. However, what an outstanding presenter! I’m glued to the screen...she’s just simply amazing

[@jennyrayman2505]

If everyone in europe and western world was like Joanna, there would have been no wars, no sanctions on nations, no global warmings, no famines. She is truly beautiful soul

[@lwhitaker4054]

It's programs like this that keep me SANE......thank-you so much!

[@simpledeliciousworld]

Love this. She gives a really idea of what Egypt is like. Most docs give you a glossed over glimpse. She's very excited and willing to discover which is lovely. Thanks it's bringing back great memories of my recent trip to Egypt. I am excited to see the rest of the series.

[@shawnmnichols1]

Wonderful tour and yes! JL is so gracious and lovely. Incredible journey this!! Thank you!

[@mikemendel6773]

I have always loved Joanna's work in TV and movies, but this is a big surprise. It is not that I dislike it not at all she has given people a good preview of what we that have been before love about Egypt's people, land, and history.

[@bananaknits]

Wonderful! I feel like I was there! Joanna’s voice is just a delight to listen to. Well done documentary.

[@adel-711]

The best documentary ever . thank you very much . She is well knowledged and shows a lot of respect and decency and very cultured lady.

[@bokhans]

I did this trip while serving with UN peacekeeping forces in Lebanon 1993. Me and a friend made the trip in green army uniform. Cairo to Aswan. Trains and floating luxury hotel. Head of UN was an man from Egypt at the time so we were treated as kings, all Egyptians our friends. All museums for free, super bargain on boats, trains, planes and hotel. Happy memories to see this.

[@Naturebug12]

These Joanna programs are incredible. The history, culture, music, faith, food. I love the humanity and ability to connect with everyone. Beautiful to watch and so relaxing. Fantastic sense of humour without disrespect. Learning the language and following customs demonstrates so much respect. Off beaten path is best way see real world ❤❤❤

[@monikholt]

She has a nice voice, so soothing voice.

[@skippermoses8094]

I so appreciate this history lesson. It's the next best thing to actually being there.

[@AidaJof]

Ohhh, but the tingling feeling you get when you step into the soil, touch the temples that have adorned not only those for whom they were intended but the ones that come & gone since ... you feel 'history' passing through you. I was overcome with emotion and cried standing on top of the 5th row of stones on the Grand Pyramid, just remembering I still get the chills! You have to go!

[@vickyrubzow710]

Joanne's voice is the most relaxing in the world. I could listen to her describe how she tweezes her brows and be entranced.
