—The success of exploring the United States from the sky in "Aerial America" has inspired a version that takes viewers on a similar journey of Britain. Filmed from helicopters and drones outfitted with high-definition cameras, the series highlights four regions -- Northern and Southern England, Wales, and Scotland -- and features views of iconic landmarks, both natural and man-made, plus monuments off the beaten path. Included are explorations of England's highest mountain, Scafell Pike; the secret hideaways where Led Zeppelin and Queen made music history; and a tiny island that once held an illustrious prisoner, Mary Queen of Scots.

Once the northern edge of the Roman Empire, Northern England is now home to the soccer Mecca of Manchester; it includes industrial cities as well as picturesque moorlands, lakes and dales, giving birth to Robin Hood, Dracula and The Beatles.
Wales is a land of myth and majesty, of legendary kings and warrior rebels; it has hundreds of castles and the hideaways where Led Zeppelin and Queen changed music history; Wales bears the indelible marks of invasion but forges its own destiny.
Scotland is a place of soaring peaks shrouded in mist and snow, rugged glens that have seen war and a tiny island that once held Mary, Queen of Scots; it's a land of heroes, such as freedom fighter William Wallace and the members of AC/DC.
