Britain’s greatest explorer, Ranulph Fiennes, was just 27 years old when he first traversed Canada’s wilderness by its rivers in 1971. Now, over 50 years later, Fiennes is embarking on a very different adventure; that of living with Parkinson’s disease.
In a new documentary series, the adventurer, along with his cousin - the Emmy-nominated Joseph Fiennes - journeys along the waterways of British Columbia. There are moments when he’s unable to take part in certain activities, such as climbing mountains, because of his impairment.
For Joseph, the fact Ranulph was contending with Parkinson’s disease during filming added to the emotional weight of the adventure, which is being released as the two-part series Fiennes: Return to the Wild.
Fiennes: Return to the Wild premieres on National Geographic on Sunday 26th May at 8pm, followed by the second episode on Sunday 2nd June at 8pm.
