Six part series following Captain James Cook's three voyages to the Pacific – from the Arctic to the Antarctic, and from Tahiti to Australia and New Zealand. Across six stunningly beautiful episodes, actor and raconteur Sam Neill takes a deeply personal, present-day voyage to map his own understanding of James Cook, Europe's greatest navigator, and the immense Pacific Ocean itself.
