00:05:02,710 --> 00:05:09,270  
飞机逆风降落最安全，因此机场用木桩标出三条跑道  
It's safest for planes to land into a breeze, so the airport has three runways marked by wooden stakes,  

42  
00:05:09,590 --> 00:05:11,470  
每条跑道角度各不相同  
each with a different angle to the wind.

00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:44,580  
这可能是全球唯一每天自动更新两次的跑道  
It's perhaps the only runway in the world that completely resurfaces itself twice a day.

明年四月我就14岁了，我列了40岁前要做的40件事，巴拉海滩降落就是其中之一  
I'm turning 14 next April and I'm doing 40 things through a 40 and landing on Bada Beach is one of them.  

55  
00:06:47,500 --> 00:06:49,140  
这体验超乎想象  
It was more than amazing.  

56  
00:06:52,380 --> 00:06:57,660  
随着午后临近，机场逐渐被涨潮淹没  
As the afternoon approaches, the airport slowly disappears under the rising tide.  

57  
00:06:59,760 --> 00:07:01,780  
史蒂夫今天的工作结束了  
And Steve's job is done for today.

There's guys quite surfing out on the beach one day.  

60  
00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:13,280  
盖特威克机场跑道上可没这种景象  
I'll bet you don't get many of them at Gatwick Airport on your runways.

It's been built separately. We know what it should look like in our heads,  

131  
00:15:04,230 --> 00:15:07,430  
但在亲眼见到前，谁都不知道效果  
but until we see it there for the very first time, nobody knows.

00:15:10,050 --> 00:15:16,870  
花车结构脆弱，一个失误就可能毁掉兔子和帽子  
The construction of the float is delicate, and one false move could break both the rabbit and the hat.

组装成功，游行正式开始

尼尔·尼科尔森，赫布里底最后一位茅屋匠  
Neil Nicholson, the last thatcher in the Hebrides.  

260  
00:26:49,250 --> 00:26:52,330  
当我看到这些老房子  
When I arrive at these old houses, I see them quite damaged  

261  
00:26:52,330 --> 00:26:53,890  
被风雨侵蚀  
and battered by the weather and stuff,  

262  
00:26:54,010 --> 00:26:56,450  
总是迫不及待想要修复
so I'm always keen to get in there and fix it.  

263  
00:26:58,630 --> 00:27:03,290  
三周前尼尔开始翻修屋顶  
Three weeks ago, Neil started on a project to refurbish the roof.  

264  
00:27:05,590 --> 00:27:09,350  
今日他采集最后一批灯芯草  
Today, he's collecting the last batch of rushes to complete the job  

265  
00:27:09,350 --> 00:27:12,210  
希望日落前完工  
and hopes to have the roof finished by sundown.  

266  
00:27:18,660 --> 00:27:21,020  
尼尔保留旧茅草层  
Neil doesn't remove the old thatch.  

267  
00:27:21,400 --> 00:27:23,920  
将新草仔细铺在旧层上  
He carefully lays the new rushes over the old  

268  
00:27:27,820 --> 00:27:30,940  
用特制工具固定

00:27:33,780 --> 00:27:37,960  
铺完草束后覆盖金属网  
Once the bundles are laid down, he covers the roof with metal mesh  

270  
00:27:43,710 --> 00:27:47,110  
压上石块防止茅草移位  
and weighs it down with stones to keep the rushes in place  

271  
00:27:47,110 --> 00:27:49,010  
抵御风雨侵蚀  
and protect them from weather damage.  

272  
00:27:59,840 --> 00:28:03,540  
完工后唯一痕迹  
When the job is done, the only clue Neil was ever here  

273  
00:28:03,540 --> 00:28:05,640  
是屋顶颜色的微妙变化  
is a subtle change in the roof's colour.  

274  
00:28:13,260 --> 00:28:15,840  
尼尔欣慰离开  
And Neil leaves happy that he's helped to preserve  

275  
00:28:15,840 --> 00:28:19,160  
为岛屿工艺史保存了重要遗迹  
an important monument to the island's crafting history  

276  
00:28:19,160 --> 00:28:20,760  
可再维持三年  
for another three years.  

277  
00:28:22,320 --> 00:28:24,660  
完工时我充满成就感  
When the work is finished, I feel great satisfaction  

278  
00:28:24,660 --> 00:28:26,660  
因为我热爱这些美丽的茅屋  
because I love the thatch gorgeous  

279  
00:28:26,660 --> 00:28:28,560  
喜欢看到它们焕然一新  
and I love seeing them and done up  

280  
00:28:28,560 --> 00:28:31,100  
每隔几年就来翻新  
so I see them renewed every couple of years  

281  
00:28:31,100 --> 00:28:32,340  
工作让我充满干劲  
and take a good desperate of the job.  

282  
00:28:41,400 --> 00:28:43,220  
随着气温骤降

283  
00:28:44,740 --> 00:28:48,660  
设得兰首府变成晶莹的童话世界  
Shetland's capital transforms into a sparkling wonderland  

284  
00:28:50,260 --> 00:28:54,600  
铁器时代的布洛克遗址覆上薄雪  
and its iron age, Brock, takes on a dusting of snow.  

285  
00:28:56,580 --> 00:28:58,260  
冬天已然来临

286  
00:29:03,730 --> 00:29:06,690  
冬季有些英国岛屿几乎与世隔绝

287  
00:29:06,690 --> 00:29:07,950  
难以抵达

英国最偏远有人岛富拉的30位居民  
The 30 residents of Britain's most remote inhabited island, Foula,  

289  
00:29:14,790 --> 00:29:17,430  
常需等待冬季风势减弱  
often have to wait for winter winds to die down  

290  
00:29:17,430 --> 00:29:20,630  
渡轮或飞机才能运送物资  
before ferries or planes can bring supplies to the island.  

291  
00:29:23,920 --> 00:29:27,700  
更南方有座英国岛屿的与世隔绝  
Further south, the isolation of one British island  

292  
00:29:27,700 --> 00:29:30,700  
孕育出独特的现代文化

293  
00:29:34,990 --> 00:29:38,550  
泽西岛与根西岛是海峡群岛中最著名的  
Jersey and Guernsey are the best known of the Channel Islands,  

294  
00:29:38,950 --> 00:29:40,410  
但并非唯二的岛屿  
but they don't sit alone.  

295  
00:29:44,300 --> 00:29:48,260  
两岛之间夹着座五公里长的小岛  
Sandwiched between them lies an island just over five kilometres long  

296  
00:29:48,260 --> 00:29:51,820  
以英国最古怪之地闻名  
that's famed as one of the UK's most eccentric places.  

297  
00:29:53,160 --> 00:29:57,560  
穿越云层可见迷你港口和停车场

298  
00:29:57,560 --> 00:29:59,600  
但似乎少了什么  
but something's missing.  

299  
00:30:09,270 --> 00:30:11,230  
这里是萨克岛  
This is the island of Sark.  

300  
00:30:12,390 --> 00:30:15,010  
岛上居民不足500人  
It's home to just under 500 people  

301  
00:30:15,010 --> 00:30:17,970  
仿佛时间在此停滞  
and it's a place that appears stuck in time.  

302  
00:30:19,530 --> 00:30:23,550  
港口停车场空空如也——岛上禁止汽车  
The harbour car park lies empty because there are no cars on the island.  

303  
00:30:24,310 --> 00:30:27,050  
汽车与路灯在此都被禁用  
They're banned here, along with streetlights.  

304  
00:30:29,130 --> 00:30:33,430  
居民出行全靠岛上70辆拖拉机  
Instead, the residents get around on one of the island's 70 tractors.  

305  
00:30:42,190 --> 00:30:45,330  
艾莉森·斯托尔滕是岛上两名护士之一  
Alison Stolten is one of the island's two nurses.  

306  
00:30:46,710 --> 00:30:49,470  
她的救护车看起来像农用机械  
Her ambulance wouldn't look out of place on a farm.  

307  
00:30:50,710 --> 00:30:52,610  
拖拉机不是常规救护车  
The tractor's not a typical ambulance.  

308  
00:30:52,890 --> 00:30:56,170  
必要时用来转运病患到诊所  
We use it for transferring patients to the surgery if needs be.  

309  
00:30:56,810 --> 00:30:58,470  
我个人可以不用拖拉机  
I could live without a tractor personally,  

310  
00:30:58,750 --> 00:31:01,790  
但工作需要它不可或缺  
but from a work perspective, no, it's really important to have one.  

311  
00:31:03,210 --> 00:31:06,430  
今天对艾莉森和她的拖拉机很特别  
Today is a very special day for Alison and her tractor.

313  
00:31:12,110 --> 00:31:14,470

00:31:16,890 --> 00:31:19,130  
当地慈善募捐

316  
00:31:21,850 --> 00:31:25,910  
但首先她得去病患家出诊  
But first, Alison has to make a home visit to a patient.  

317  
00:31:28,010 --> 00:31:31,470  
途中经过80米高的拉库佩山脊  
On her way, she passes through an 80-metre high ridge  

318  
00:31:31,470 --> 00:31:36,130  
连接大萨克与小萨克两岛  
called Lacoupé, that joins two parts of the island  

319  
00:31:36,130 --> 00:31:38,130  
known as Big and Little Sark.  

320  
00:31:44,600 --> 00:31:48,060  
这个地标正逐渐被侵蚀  
This famous landmark is gradually being eroded,  

321  
00:31:49,200 --> 00:31:53,080  
小萨克岛终将成为独立岛屿  
and Little Sark will eventually become a separate island.  

322  
00:31:58,580 --> 00:32:00,820  
完成所有家访后  
With all her home visits complete,  

323  
00:32:01,480 --> 00:32:04,700  
艾莉森开始为巡游装饰拖拉机  
it's time for Alison to decorate her tractor for the big parade.  

324  
00:32:06,280 --> 00:32:08,080  
她并非唯一准备者  
And she is not the only one.  

325  
00:32:08,080 --> 00:32:11,400  
全岛都在紧锣密鼓筹备  
Across the island, preparations are underway.  

326  
00:32:13,860 --> 00:32:16,180  
暮色笼罩萨克岛时  
As dusk settles over Sark,  

327  
00:32:17,640 --> 00:32:21,120  
岛民的努力绽放耀眼光彩  
the islander's efforts are revealed in all their glory.  

328

艾莉森的救护车加入26辆节日农用车队  
Alison's ambulance joins another 26 festive farm vehicles for the parade.  

329  
00:32:42,140 --> 00:32:46,320  
从空中看像圣诞旋转木马的玩具  
From above, they look like toys from a Christmas carousel.  

330  
00:32:49,520 --> 00:32:52,340  
这是萨克岛居民首次举办  
This is the first time the residents of Sark  

331  
00:32:52,340 --> 00:32:54,520

332  
00:32:55,320 --> 00:32:57,060  
但立即大获成功

333  
00:32:59,120 --> 00:33:00,540  
我们完成了拖拉机巡游

334  
00:33:01,400 --> 00:33:02,540  
圣诞氛围越来越浓

335  
00:33:02,820 --> 00:33:03,800  
大家都感受到节日气息

336  
00:33:03,940 --> 00:33:04,920  
我终于换上圣诞装  
I've finally got the suit out.

几个世纪来岛屿塑造了英国文化

英格兰西南角

这里是锡利群岛

由五座有人岛和
