We have been fairly critical of the show in previous weeks since it has seemed to focus on the Brit’s shock at their living conditions, but last night’s episode managed to present some really powerful messages and hopefully left viewers with a clear understanding of some of the difficult debates in ethical trade.

Quoted: The spectacular Janjira fort, a chip of India’s African history, stands in the Arabian Sea, a few kilometers below Mumbai. It is literally referred to as the Island Fort. Covered with trees and roots, it is tall and majestic - proud of the fact that it remained the only unconquered fort in the region.
