TROPIC OF CANCER WITH SIMON REEVE - Programme Five: Bangladesh, N.E. India and Burma.

Author and TV presenter Simon Reeve continues his epic 6-part journey around the Tropic of Cancer, the northern border of the tropics region. On this fifth leg of the journey he travels from western Bangladesh across the Indian states of Tripura and Mizoram, and on into Burma.

Simon's photograph shows villagers on a boat taking them across a lake in a remote area of Tripura, north eastern India.

This Tropic of Cancer series is Simon's third trip exploring the Tropics - the region of the planet with both the richest natural biodiversity, and the greatest concentration of human suffering. During 2006 and 2008 he travelled around the Equator and the Tropic of Capricorn for the acclaimed BBC series of the same name.
