00:03:12.919 --> 00:03:20.879
We<00:03:13.400><c> drove</c><00:03:13.819><c> from</c><00:03:15.259><c> a</c><00:03:16.120><c> place</c><00:03:16.300><c> called</c><00:03:16.680><c> Bromsgrove,</c><00:03:18.000><c> near</c><00:03:18.280><c> Birmingham,</c><00:03:18.900><c> England,</c><00:03:20.360><c> down</c>

00:03:23.740 --> 00:03:27.740
We<00:03:24.020><c> took</c><00:03:24.300><c> a</c><00:03:24.560><c> ferry</c><00:03:24.740><c> from</c><00:03:25.020><c> Italy</c><00:03:25.439><c> to</c><00:03:25.719><c> Greece,</c><00:03:26.740><c> because</c><00:03:26.740><c> the</c><00:03:27.020><c> alternative</c><00:03:27.500><c> was</c>

00:03:27.740 --> 00:03:29.159

00:03:29.580 --> 00:03:32.780

00:03:32.780 --> 00:03:33.659
I<00:03:32.840><c> doubt</c><00:03:32.919><c> very</c><00:03:33.180><c> much</c><00:03:33.360><c> you</c><00:03:33.500><c> could</c>

00:04:00.819 --> 00:04:03.680
and<00:04:01.020><c> actually</c><00:04:01.280><c> went</c><00:04:01.439><c> through</c><00:04:01.680><c> the</c><00:04:01.919><c> Isthmus</c><00:04:02.259><c> of</c><00:04:02.560><c> Corinth,</c><00:04:03.159><c> which</c><00:04:03.379><c> is</c>

00:04:05.960 --> 00:04:12.500
can<00:04:06.319><c> go</c><00:04:06.740><c> and</c><00:04:07.379><c> bypass</c><00:04:07.900><c> that</c><00:04:08.639><c> part</c><00:04:09.120><c> of</c><00:04:09.319><c> Greece</c><00:04:09.460><c> that</c><00:04:09.680><c> comes</c><00:04:09.979><c> below</c><00:04:10.659><c> Corinth,</c><00:04:12.300><c> and</c>

00:04:16.439 --> 00:04:20.360
So<00:04:16.639><c> we</c><00:04:16.800><c> covered</c><00:04:16.959><c> about</c><00:04:17.399><c> 5</c><00:04:17.600><c>,000</c><00:04:17.920><c> miles</c><00:04:18.300><c> by</c><00:04:18.620><c> road,</c><00:04:19.019><c> about</c><00:04:19.240><c> 800</c><00:04:19.560><c> miles</c><00:04:19.980><c> by</c>

00:04:25.399 --> 00:04:27.800
Now<00:04:25.540><c> that</c><00:04:25.699><c> meant</c><00:04:25.980><c> sitting</c><00:04:26.360><c> in</c><00:04:26.540><c> the</c><00:04:26.660><c> back</c><00:04:26.819><c> of</c><00:04:27.019><c> a</c><00:04:27.139><c> car</c><00:04:27.339><c> for</c><00:04:27.600><c> quite</c>

some<00:04:28.160><c> time,</c><00:04:29.279><c> and</c><00:04:29.720><c> we</c><00:04:30.019><c> just</c><00:04:30.300><c> did</c><00:04:30.420><c> our</c><00:04:30.660><c> filming</c>

00:04:30.939 --> 00:04:33.079
and<00:04:31.139><c> then</c><00:04:31.279><c> went</c><00:04:31.379><c> on</c><00:04:31.600><c> to</c><00:04:31.699><c> the</c><00:04:31.779><c> next</c><00:04:32.040><c> town</c><00:04:32.319><c> and</c><00:04:32.500><c> did</c><00:04:32.639><c> our</c><00:04:32.839><c> filming</c>

00:04:33.079 --> 00:04:35.740

00:04:36.000 --> 00:04:39.379
wasn't<00:04:36.399><c> providing</c><00:04:36.800><c> time</c><00:04:37.199><c> to</c><00:04:37.360><c> do</c><00:04:37.579><c> anything</c><00:04:37.899><c> but</c><00:04:38.500><c> see</c><00:04:39.000><c> what</c><00:04:39.180><c> we</c>

00:04:41.279 --> 00:04:44.139
So<00:04:41.680><c> we</c><00:04:42.399><c> were</c><00:04:42.540><c> reading</c><00:04:42.759><c> in</c><00:04:42.939><c> the</c><00:04:43.079><c> car,</c><00:04:43.279><c> all</c><00:04:43.459><c> the</c><00:04:43.639><c> time</c><00:04:43.819><c> reading,</c>
