Mississippi
Series: Stephen Fry in America
Synopsis
Stephen Fry journeys across America, hoping to learn more about the country that has always fascinated him. He begins his epic 2,000-mile journey up the Mississippi in the streets of New Orleans during its busiest day of the year - Mardi Gras. He meets a Jewish voodoo priestess, an Iraqi war veteran experiencing flashbacks in the abandoned neighbourhoods destroyed by Hurricane Katrina, down-and-outs not living the American Dream, and takes a tour through a notorious prison. In the Delta he gets the blues with actor Morgan Freeman at his club in Clarksdale and in Chicago drives guitar legend Buddy Guy round his old stomping grounds. Forsaking calmness at the Transcendental Meditation HQ in Iowa, he travels to Motown - Detroit - where he gets to drive in a Model T and the latest Cadillac with its designer. He enjoys the rustic beauty of an Amish farm and milks a sheep in Wisconsin. At the river's source in Minnesota he learns how the Hmong refugees are adapting to the snowy wastes.
