Christine Finn covered The Channel for local press and TV through the 1980s-90s

Now she examines recent developments in our relationship with the Strait as our portal to Europe - as she meets those making the crossing on the DFDS Cote des Dunes.

The Channel is a reflection on the stretch of water that both separates us from and connects us to Europe.

This series examines how this waterway has affected our British identity through time, and continues to do so.

Music composed by Phil Channell

Producer: Marya Burgess

First broadcast on 麻豆社 Radio 4 in March 2018.
