In the conclusion of a two-part documentary marking the 10th anniversary of travel writer Bruce Chatwin's death, his biographer Nicholas Shakespeare continues his journey. Travelling to Africa, South America and Australia, he meets the likes of Werner Herzog, Thomas Keneally and Patrick Leigh Fermor. Since his death from AIDS in 1989, Chatwin's books have been published in 30 languages and inspired three feature films, and his thougths about 'The Nomad' have become the model for global travellers everywhere.
