What is this program -- Please help

[MidnightWizard]

Do not have DStv at home but get an opportunity to watch every now and then.

Watched a bit of DStv over the weekend and noticed an insert for a forthcoming program.

Thought I could find it easy enough , but after a bad night with tummybugs , the memory was not good
I never wrote down the details. <bad-boy>

OK I think that it is in the documentary section somewhere ?

Basically .......
Location is the UK
Old British geyser has an OLD road map Atlas thing and then goes off trying to follow the old routes shown on the map.
Ends up in all sorts of places -- dead ends etc etc
Checks old map against current stuff on computer
Title was something to do with maps -- I think ????

I have looked at the DStv site and the program guide but cannot turn up anything ( probably not looking properly )

Any DStv addicts out there that can point me in the right direction

Thanks Gary -- interesting but not the one I am looking for.

It was on more of a sort of lighter note -- almost Jeremy Clarkson type thing

I am thinking BBC -- but I cannot find anything there

Do you know the date, time you watched it? If so, its as easy as opening your dish magazine..

Thanks -- NO Dish magazine here -- I am not a DStv consumer.

Babe in the woods when it comes to SAT TV

Program was trailered / advertised this past long weekend ( Monday Tuesday )

( New program for May I think )

So if you watch any of the Documentaries I guess you would have seen it.
