I express you huge Gratitude for an opportunity to see this magnificent film about my Favourite Norway!!! Yours faithfully, Alex

[@cakebeslag]

I just love Joanna. Perfection in every way.

[@VNExperience]

I feel privileged to live in Finland. When the sky is clear, you have a 50% chance of seeing auroras every night. They're something you never get bored of and the first thing I always want to show to my foreign guests.

[@irenedavo3768]

Amazing

[@irenedavo3768]

Vietnam 🇻🇳

[@VNExperience]

@@irenedavo3768 Yup, Vietnam is amazing too

[@ym10up]

Oh what a life she has lived and continues to live

[@melissaphillips3088]

Wonderful lady who inspires people to be adventurous. Seeing places through her eyes is a gift!🌸

[@CindyBarg]

I'm crying, this is so beautiful! How lovely...

[@WoodysAR]

You would enjoy the documentary 'The Frankincense Trail', Like Joanna the host is a wonderful British host 'KATE HUMBLE' who I enjoy almost nearly as much! (Frankincense is the most Heavenly Incense direct from nature).

[@nicolashankaradsan3084]

Joanna Lumley is so lovely and talented i enjoy her documterys esecpially this one the nothern lights is my fave one

[@lynndeschambault1067]

Of coarse Joanna Lumley from "AbFab" ( love her in that show) is absolutely fabulous but she is also a terrific traveler who brings us along on her adventures. I love the way she talks to locals & "absolutely" loves what she experiences & learns. There's something about her curious directness disguised in her soft spoken posh accent that charms & disarms.

[@journalistgirl07]

Joanna Lumley- I have never heard of her before, but she is such a magnificent woman and narrator :) Love this documentary :)

[@axeldurman5224]

She makes me want to go on and on and on viewing her documentaries. Joanna Lumley is a national treasure....should be made a Dame by now...hurry up!

[@WrestleNiceGuy121]

Joanna Lumley is a Gift from God. Her warmth and sincerity, her God given talent to make people laugh, and her ability to teach and her help for the Ghurkas to get government veterans pension in Britain is/are symbolic that God has his Hand on her life!

[@johnjamesflashman6856]

The Gurkhas are true friends of Britain, ferocious warriors and admired by almost every British soldier who has fought beside them.

[@glenabarientos7285]

Since cannot go outside the country because of COVID-19 i thank @Joanna Lumley for all her documentary vedios I enjoy watching and I learned a lot☺️👍👍, watching from Netflix to KZbin ☺️😂

[@user-lt2ze3bs7u]

You are the best Story teller

[@emilyhutjes]

2019 - Thank you BBC and Mrs. Lumley for making such briljant travel docu's. I wish you could teach some Dutch TV channels how to do that.

[@pickassoreborn]

Cheers for uploading this, it's a beautiful country. I will definitely purchase the DVD!

[@sashlebonk]

Wow! Amazing! So brave of you Joanna! A veritable new sir David Attenborough!

[@qembereyyubov]

I saw this video special emotions.indeed,it’s wonderful that,you born in one of tropical country and you don’t see anytime snow or don’t feel cold.But future, you get chance to live this situation.

[@NiteOwl1224]

Beautiful dogs, looks like they're smiling!

[@WoodysAR]

Dogs LOVE having a purpose, knowing what's expected of them and JOINING IN ON THE FUN! These guys get all three :)

[@janie166]

This wonderful documentary has become my special Christmastime treat. What a thrilling adventure -- so full of charm and whimsy. It makes me feel like a little child again with its romance and wonderment. I'm so glad that Joanna finally had the chance to fulfil her dream of a lifetime. Thank you so much for sharing this with us.

[@philhipp7766]

this. is. beautiful. Happy for her to have her dream fullfilled!

[@moodyblue1964]

I have just come back from Tromso and one cannot describe the magic of the Aurora Borealis, was lucky enough to get to see them in full flow on two different nights and words cannot express the experience. You cannot see them as vivid as you do in pictures but it get's pretty close.

[@charissecoal]

she speaks like a female sir david attenborough

[@AnnabelleJARankin]

Love her voice. Real RP.

[@nicolashankaradasn8740]

i luv joanna lumley

[@brentm4394]

Try coming in Saskatchewan in Canada. Northern lights all year. A regular sight on summer nights

[@atje43]

GREAT DOCUMENTARY- Hope she does the Southern most parts next -Antarctica and Aurora Australis!

[@mercedeslb237]

Elle est vraiment magnifique! Merci pour partager.

[@sabineb.5616]

Northern lights in Northern Norway are wonderful! I also always wanted to go to Norway or Iceland in winter. And after six rounds of chemotherapy during an especially hot summer I decided to skip rehabilitation, and I booked a round trip from Bergen to the Russian border and back with one of the legendary Hurtigruten post ships - and I choose the end of February 😊 Everybody said that this is madness because I wouldn't be able to see anything except maybe a few Northern lights. Everybody couldn't have been more wrong! Yes, I saw plenty of Northern lights, but I saw many other things, too! The light of the winter sun was wonderfully golden, and since everything was covered with snow you can see a lot of things even after sun set, and Norway's snow covered coastal mountains looked like the Dolomites. The Hurtigruten post ships are not cruise ships, and they travel day and night in order to transport passengers, cargo and mail. You have to organize your own entertainment. But when the ships stop in a port, it's possible to make excursions. My best excursion was a trip with sledge dogs along the bay of Tromsø in the golden light of the afternoon sun. As a dog lover this had been on my bucket list for a long time. However, the most exciting event happened at the beginning of my trip after the ship had left Bergen in the evening - and we went right into a severe storm whose intensity constantly increased. We were told in the morning not to leave our cabins, and I became sea sick for the first time in my life. The ship was obviously in some trouble because it couldn't reach the next port, and it had to be redirected to a safer place. When it finally managed to reach a protected spot, journalists entered our ship in order to find out if everything was alright. I had no idea that apparently the situation had not been business as usual. We were told that many waves had been as high as 12 meters! That's as high as a 19th century four-storey building! Unfortunately I had not been able to appreciate this, because the windows in my cabin had been constantly under water! But the rest of our trip was all sunshine and friendly weather. So, did I get better during that trip? You bet! The fresh and cold salty air and the sea food was exactly what I needed! And the adventure at the beginning helped everybody to forget conventions and we became friends for the duration of our sea voyage. I can highly recommend Arctic Norway in winter!

[@margamj1961]

ThanXX for this, I saw a couple of months ago this docu on tv in the Netherlands, but I missed a part, now I can watch it totally! Her beautiful voice with it...what an experiece this voyage would have been for her! A real spiritual journey ! I am jealous.... When I see her I always think of Purdey from the series The Avengers....hahaha. A classic lady. Marga

[@WoodysAR]

I _KNEW_ Patsy had a deep down love for -scientists- uh, _science_ ... She really is fabulous at presenting / documenting!

[@rosemariemartin1361]

I'm so jealous. It's been a dream of mine to see the lights. I've also always wanted to go to Iceland.

[@chrisstevenson5378]

What grace and girlieness from a mature and beautiful woman. She's about 72--I want her as my cougar. Love.

[@rajandavid]

As a little girl I lived in the steamy heat of Malaysia. Joanna must have been the daughter of a British empire official

[@KaniToken]

I adore her

[@yes-ni1od]

I must go back to Norway in the winter

[@laconja1]

Love Her ❤️

[@CatonaWall175]

06:00 mins : 'this is not your average Taxi rank at the train station'. Excellent.

[@heighleigh69]

Snø glorious snø!!!!

[@boabydarin]

i would love to see the northern lights on my bucket list

[@bushcraftandastronomer.3775]

She was on a journey to see mother nature's greatest show the northern lights. She went and she knew she may never see the northern lights on this journey.

[@EinkOLED]

She says she's not been that north before, but if she's ever flown to japan from the UK like me or the west coast of america, then you will find that the flight sometime takes you way above the tops of Scandinavian.

[@WarwickkkT101]

Aurora Borealis! At this time of year! At this time of day! In this part of the country! Localised entirely within your kitchen!?

[@AnkleSnapper72]

Skinner.

[@Gar96229]

......yes. ....may I see it? .....................no.

[@WarwickkkT101]

Seymour the house is on fire! No mother it's just the northern lights.

[@merijnlijn73]

Does anyone knows the title of the song that starts at 6m 48s? (when she's travelling with the husky sled)

[@rommelorbigo6857]

J is so so funny!

[@wandajames6234]

Come to Canada, we will show you Northern Lights whenever you like-- and a few of those 'huskies' look surprisingly like hounds..... our husky dogs are actually husky-- huge with lots of thick fur. Of course Norway is beautiful too....

[@bighassan]

You can buy the DVD on Amazon for £10.98 with free UK postage - well worth a buy!

[@californiahiker9616]

It won’t play on regular American DVD players. Pity!

[@alanwisdom7777]

This is magic, but i can't stop thinking about Patsy in the sleigh drinking vodka 😅😅

[@Anna-yw8yg]

Damm this is my dream.. to go see the lights

[@elizabethflynn8455]

Mine too!

[@benters3509]

She's adorable! But beware. There is steel in that there lady!

[@johnjamesflashman6856]

Of course she is British, with a dash of Kashmiri.

[@Threnna]

"Arctic" Norway...? Makes it sound like we never have summers. ;^; It's not that cold here

[@moflataker]

Yeah, Arctic Norway. Based on our location, it can get just as cold here as in Siberia, if the conditions allow it.

[@leorolon1455]

Algun alma caritativa podría incluirle subtitulos en español ? Gracias.

[@thekingofmoney2000]

She probably does considering here grandmother was Danish!

[@dewiratna4888]

Hi joanna

[@johnjamesflashman6856]

I must take this opportunity to thank all those at KZbin for the hours of pleasure it has given me. By the way the cost of Premium is well worth it.

[@Lilatale95]

I know those dogs irl!!! :D

[@philipokarol4876]

What? In summer the sun never sets!!

[@CroMarduk]

Dear friends who like winter and Norway and Arctic, I recommend book "The terror" by Dan Simmons. The book is set in Canadian arctic circle, and the atmosphere of the book is just incredible.

[@gmar7836]

Take care of those dogs!

[@romanyakubson]

@magyarmoldi I THINK SHE IS JUST BEING FUNNY))

[@luisespindolab_b_b_]

You know this is illegal and I only watch this for school? Edit:this is illegal because this isn't the BBC channel

[@MrDavfit]

Sweetie Darling... that Hat is so Patsy lol

[@brainrubber]

10:00 "i can call myself an explorer , not a tourist" sits in a sledges agonizingly dragged by dogs and at the same time straightening her hat off her face in order to keep make up in the right place
