A Masterpiece Theatre Presentation

The epic race to the South Pole between rival explorers Scott and Amundsen is one of the greatest adventure stories of the Twentieth Century. To reach their goal, English Captain Robert Falcon Scott (Martin Shaw) and Norwegian Roald Amundsen (Sverre Anker Ousdal) undertook in 1911, an awesome 1,500-mile trek across the desolate frozen wastes of Antarctica, facing danger, extreme suffering and death. Their motives and methods were quite different, but their aim was the same, to be the first to plant their country s flag at the South Pole.
