Will Self's Great British Bus Journey Series 1
Episode 2 of 10

Will Self continues on his 1,000-mile tour of the UK exploring British identity: Swansea, and Welsh identity. From 2018.

Will Self continues his tour of urban Britain travelling only by coach and bus, assessing British identity at a time of flux.

It's a late night for Will as he speaks to some of Plymouth's homeless people who are gathering to make use of a mobile soup kitchen. After just a few hours sleep, he boards the 5am coach bound for Swansea, where he samples a local delicacy and examines the state of Welsh identity.

Producer: Laurence Grissell.

First broadcast on 91热爆 Radio 4 in January 2018.
