Sea City - Maritime Merseyside

A behind-the-scenes glimpse at the Port of Liverpool, meeting the people who work along the waterfront and witnessing those taking part in the annual charity swim in the Mersey.

It's one of the most famous views in the world - and one of the UK's busiest ports. This is a rare chance to meet the people who work behind the scenes along the waterfront, and see over a million people turn out to watch a choreographed 'River Dance' by the ships in a memorable display that rekindles Liverpool's pride in its shipping heritage. The Mersey is also the backdrop for an annual charity swim - the rainy weather, tides, cold water and even jellyfish conspire against the brave souls raising cash for their favourite causes.
