CHINESE NEW YEAR: THE BIGGEST CELEBRATION ON EARTH

3 X 60 BBC TWO

Presented by The Hairy Bikers, Kate Humble, Ant Anstead and Jing Lusi, this combination of as-live links and story VTs covers the length and breadth of China.

An amazing window into this monumental annual occasion, delving into every part of the extravaganza – from the Bikers doing their shopping at the biggest market in Beijing before joining a family for a traditional new year meal, to Kate witnessing an emotional reunion at Beijing Capital Airport, from Ant seeing how a town made entirely of ice can spring up practically overnight, to Jing finding out how the rail networks cope with the millions of people trying to make it home for the holidays.
