 |
|
The BBC2 TV programmes covering the "Frankincense Trail"
are currently available on the BBC iPlayer at:-
http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b00mfcf9/The_Frankincense_Trail_Oman_Yemen_and_Saudi_Arabia/
The first programme opens in the Dhofar region in Oman; features camel-jumping in Yemen;
and includes an interview with a head of the mutawaa
in the centre of Riyadh.
The second programme will show more of the K.S.A. .
I believe that these programmes are informative - and they will be of particular interest to those teachers considering a first posting in the peninsula.

Unfortunately BBC IPlayer is only available in the UK.
