1/3 - Mali
After four decades of reporting from the continent, Jonathan Dimbleby returns to Africa on a 7,000-mile journey to discover how it is changing. In the first of three films he travels across Mali, Ghana and Nigeria. On the River Niger he meets the men who dive for sand, learns the art of mud building in the ancient town of Djenne, and attends a court presided over by the King of the Ashanti, a former Brent council worker. In Lagos, Dimbleby looks at the thriving fashion and music businesses. In contrast to images of a continent afflicted by war, famine, poverty and AIDS, this series offers Africa in a new and refreshing light.
2/3 - Ethiopia
On the second leg of his journey across Africa, Jonathan Dimbleby travels 2000 miles through East Africa's Rift Valley. Starting in Ethiopia, where he was the first journalist to report the 1973 famine, Dimbleby discovers the great strides being made to safeguard the country from future catastrophes. In Kenya he finds out how mobile phones are revolutionising small businesses and even the lives of Masai tribes. In Tanzania he joins in a football match with Africa's Human Rights Commission.
3/3 - Congo
On the final leg of his 7,000-mile odyssey, Jonathan Dimbleby travels from Congo to Durban in search of the stories revealing contemporary Africa. He learns how China's billion-dollar deals have rebooted African economies, once dependent on Western aid and investment. Passing through Zambia, Jonathan survives a training session with boxing world champion Esther Phiri and meets Hugh Masekela, who shares with him his view of Africa's emerging revival.
