Mediterranean with Simon Reeve

In Malta, Simon Reeve goes behind the postcard image to uncover a haven for organized crime. Then in Italy, Simon crawls through a huge underground warren of tunnels and bunkers built by fugitive mafia bosses before aiding in a loggerhead turtle rescue.

Simon discovers that Cyprus isn't all ski resorts when he joins the UN troops patrolling the peacekeeping line between Turkey and Greece. Then, he visits holy sites in Lebanon, patrols Israel's coast with the Navy and meets an inventor of ash-made bricks.

In Libya, Simon Reeve uncovers sites torn apart by revolution and Ancient Roman cities preserved by volunteers. Then, Simon visits the Tunisian desert used in movies, tries camel-powered olive oil and meets people standing up against the Sicilian mafia.

In Ceuta, Simon joins the border police checking for stowaways before he encounters a group of migrants eager to make it to Europe. Then, Simon uncovers the Spanish greenhouse industry and visits one of the most-heavily protected nature reserves on Earth.
