North (2011)

Overview

After exploring the wild south in his award winning TV ONE series SOUTH, Marcus Lush has gone to the other extreme of the country for his next show, NORTH. From lighthouses to lava flows, kayaks to kiwis, beaches to butterflies, Marcus covers a lot of ground - and water - in his latest adventure about New Zealand's special places and people. Opening with spectacular aerial views of Manukau Harbour, Marcus travels up and down the east and west coasts, visiting the islands of the gulf, and telling the stories of the great harbours of the Manukau, Hokianga, Kaipara and the Waitemata, concluding 10 weeks later with an A to Z of Auckland in classic Lush style. As always, Marcus becomes intimately involved in the stories of the landscape and the people that populate it, as he undertakes a journey that travels the coasts and harbours, the hills and sand dunes, of the top of the North Island.
