The episode discusses the tragic return journey of Robert Falcon Scott and his team after losing the race to the South Pole, along with an analysis of Scott's legacy over the past century.
In the final part in our series, Scott and his team set off for their base - disappointed at being beaten to the South Pole by Roald Amundsen and the Norwegians. The result will be a tragedy of epic proportions. We will wrap up by discussing Scott's legacy - and how it had evolved over the last 100 years. Sponsors: Quince.
