00:14Two sisters, three countries and two weeks traveling from the raw and remote to some serious Scandinavian luxury.
00:21Greenland, Iceland and Norway share extraordinary landscapes, but as travel destinations they couldn't feel more different.
00:29First, Greenland. Nook is quiet, vast and almost otherworldly.
00:35But one man was an unexpected presence almost everywhere we went, Donald Trump.
00:40In restaurants, shops and museums, his interest in taking control of Greenland was part of the conversation.
00:45Some thought the attention could boost tourism. Most we spoke to were not so keen.
00:51Nearly 150,000 international tourists visited Greenland in 2024, significant for a population of fewer than 60,000.
00:59But beyond the extraordinary scenery, we found a country confronting much bigger questions about identity, its relationship with Denmark and
01:07its future.
01:08Then Iceland, colorful, commercial and extremely good at tourism.
01:12More than 10 million overnight stays were recorded in 2025, with tourism directly accounting for 8.8% of GDP.
01:21Reykjavik has everything neatly packaged. Excursions, restaurants, Viking souvenirs and extraordinarily fresh fish.
01:27It's also very expensive.
01:31But beyond the city, nature takes over.
01:34Volcanoes, waterfalls and tectonic fissures create landscapes used by many a Hollywood production, including Game of Thrones, Interstellar and Star
01:43Wars.
01:45And finally, Norway.
01:47Bergen led us towards the spectacular Flom Railway, around 20 kilometers of mountains, waterfalls and fjords.
01:55Tom Cruise, James Bond and Succession have all used Norway scenery, and it's not difficult to see why.
02:01Norway is also expensive, but tourists aren't staying away.
02:04International guest nights rose 14% in 2025, while tourism supports around 13,000 jobs in the Bergen region.
02:14So we're at the airport here in Norway, and we're allowed three words to describe each of our experiences in
02:21Greenland, Iceland and Norway. Greenland.
02:24My three words, remote, dystopian and mesmerizing.
02:27Mine are sci-fi, raw and out of this world.
02:32Iceland.
02:32Charming, colourful and vibrant.
02:35I'm going to say fresh, fishy, stunning, commercial.
02:39And Norway.
02:40Beautiful, historic and very rainy.
02:43For me, luxurious without a doubt, fairytale and quality.
02:48No beaches, no sun lounges, not much sun.
02:51Instead, icebergs, volcanoes, fjords and two sisters discovering a very different northern vacation.
03:22Here we go, the show.
03:25Widow's Bay.
03:50so thank you so much and thank you to the academy and we'd also like to thank the
03:55evil entity on the island that trusted us with its story okay serve a punch now thank you so much
04:04and the Emmy goes to
04:27people need to know the truth and we need to continue to tell them that in whatever way we
04:32can and whatever form we can because at the end of the day I think sometimes it's only the
04:37storytelling that allows us to understand and appreciate each other and that's more important
04:42than ever
04:43the Emmy goes to
04:59DTF say hi
05:22the world's biggest rock band the popularity likened to that of the Beatles the pop group
05:27oasis is in doubt tonight brother against brother we do we do get quite nasty to see himself as a
05:33bit of a mad genius but he's not quite a genius but he wants to be the man in charge
05:37he wants to
05:37get the main money through that
05:38i think it's called don't look back in anger for a reason do you know what i mean it's not
05:45we're not looking back at what happened we just established that that's what happened
05:50a lot of people know some people don't but then what this film is about is now what's happening
05:55right now and you know the spirit of this intentionally was in a time of spite and meanness
06:01and social media and anonymous screaming at each other this is about people finding common ground
06:08reconciling and you know we found in screening this quite often people who watch it it's quite an
06:15emotional experience but then when it ends they think there's someone probably everyone in this
06:19room has got someone they're estranged from and it's like people are watching this and thinking okay
06:25maybe i should text that person maybe i should phone that person that's what it's about it's about
06:29now and the future
06:36forgiveness is hard it costs us something
06:44one of the biggest moments of our lives right
06:50i feel like i'm exercising demons getting it all out the rage just pure anger i need to calm the
06:56out
07:00and i feel like i can't believe the rest of my life
07:04in a champagne supernova a champagne supernova
07:11we all said that we didn't mean it that's the way it is when you miss people
07:16the songs are one thing but i've forgotten what he means to people
07:22i certainly wasn't prepared for the intense outpouring
07:30the sense of what it meant to people
07:42you've got a chance to change the narrative of the band
07:54each year millions of tourists from around the world visit pompeii they admire its frescos and
08:00archaeological ruins but few of them will ever noticed the solar panels installed on the roof
08:05of the ancient roman villa of the mysteries
08:09vediamo qui uno dei coppi delle tegole sul tetto sotto il quale stiamo e da qui sembra
08:17una tegola antica da dietro vediamo che in realtà è una piccola pannello fotovoltaico e quindi produce
08:27energia per illuminare questa villa che gran parte della della energia necessaria proviene proprio dal tetto
08:37installato qui while pompeii is considering extending this solution to other areas of the archaeological park
08:44that are far from the electricity grid the city of evora in portugal has also adopted similar technologies
08:51avoiding the visual impact of conventional solar panels like this we have here these shingles installed
08:58in the rooftop of the city hall in evora but they are not normal shingles they are made of a
09:03semi
09:04transparent epox material with solar cells embedded in the middle of it which generates electricity for
09:11the self-consumption of this building we have around this area around 20 kilowatt peak of pv shingles as
09:18we call them installed and they their objective is to blend into the landscape architecture of this
09:24building to protect the heritage area aspect of of of ever since 1986 ever as historic center has
09:33been listed as a unesco world heritage site pv shingles are among the solutions through which a
09:39european project is helping the city reconcile heritage preservation with the modern challenges of
09:44sustainability evora is a city of patrimonium mondial humanity and tal
09:52como a grande maioria das cidades históricas europeias tem a obrigação de preservar o centro histórico de
10:03preservar o patrimonio no entanto não pode ficar parada no tempo nós temos também que avançar no
10:12sentido de encontrar soluções que permitam cidades históricas ir ao encontro daquilo que hoje em dia
10:20nós temos que resolver que é o problema da descarbonização among the solutions developed
10:29to make this possible is one created by a small family owned company based in north eastern italy
10:35e o coppo é um composto de resina que vem versado ao primeiro strato se prendono le celle fotovoltaica que
10:42abbiamo já saldado in precedenza e se mette dentro successivamente se prende un outro
10:48strato que é um composto fatto con dei carichi l'ultimo passaggio é abbasare lo stampo e togliere
10:56finalmente o prodotto finito que é appunto é um composto de resina con interno le celle que
11:01temos visto prima solutions like this one and the different technology adopted in pompey
11:06send an encouraging message to the rest of the world credo que la lezione que pompey dá é que se
11:14funcione por funcionare qui in questo logo così delicato così attentionato così fragile e grande
11:22allora vuol dire que può funcionare ovunque glass roofs integrating photovoltaic panels and solar
11:28canopies installed in the courtyard of schools in the historic center are among the other
11:32solutions being tested in evora together with alkmaar in the netherlands the portuguese city is
11:39assessing these innovations through the positives project to evaluate their potential for replication
11:44across europe
