Welcome to Lonabdon, by.

Baby.

London's one of my
all-time favorite cities,

an d erwhenev I'm here, I can't
imagine not playing tourist.

I like the mixture
of old architecture

and new artuchitecre.

A It's real mix 'cause
London's a merchant city,

so it was built in bigs, block

and every building's
comp dletelyifferent.

Wow.

My guides...
Vikki and Dutch van n, Somere

ma jor players on the
custom-bike scene

and owners of The Bid. Ke She.

They've al aso gotccess to some
of London's mosted stori places.

Yt Everhing that you read
in a history book is here.

You can go and f iind itn an
hour's drive in any direction.

We have buildings
dating back to the th century

ndsurrouedys by skcrapers.

It's hijust ts big
kind of melting pot

of all dif cferentultures,

atand th's what I love about it.

I guess this is aasbot
London-touristy

motorcycle r
idingas you're ever gonna g.

Yeah, this is beautiful.

Too bad Jeffrey Dean Morgan's
missing this,

llbut I' be riding
with him later.

What is this
we're going through?

This is the capital seat
of residence for the queen...

Buh... Buckingham Palace.

And when she's in,
the flag is up.

Yeah, the flp. Ag's u.

- Yeah, fla. G's up.
- Yeah, she's in.

- The queen is home.
- Hey, Queenie.

'V Wee got one last stop
on our morning tour...

To the wer of London.

Whoo! Look at that.

Thank you guys. Wow.

Welcome to the tower, Norman.

Yeah, this is awesome.

No os ne getto do this
on a motorcycle.

This is llliteray where,
you know, kings and queens

and... and peopl oe kindf sent
people to be beheaded.

The Beefeaters are the guys
who've been guarding the tower

for, I don't know, b
prably , years,

and ivthey le inside the tower.

A lot of people don't knt. Tha.

Some of the guys ride bikes,
and they keep their bikes there.

So we thought we'd
introduce you to the guys.

That'd be great.

This is a proper house
of horrors, really.

Yeah. TWhoa. Be great.

La The st monarch to live here
on a kind of permanent basis.

Ki was ng I James
in the early th century.

He'd be onop the t floor.

Middle floor wasor
fo-f the knights

and... he and tir good ladies.

And then we've got
a lower floor.

W, No you see the walls at the
bottom that are exposed here?

-feet-thick walls.

It's a goodpd sounroofer 'cause
that's where your dungeon was...

E the t*rture chamber was.

U-Under here? Under there, yes.

WoUnw. Der there, yeah.

So thed y liveabove
the t*rture chamber.

So, this was why you had

In the midst of all tkihis
nd oorf histy and royal story.

I wonder ie'f thers any
vegetarians in the Beefeaters.

The Tower and the guys in it

You knew whatan you wted to do.

I flew out to geLos Anles,

I and bon ught aold in

and trode i
across teao the st coast.

And it was on that trip,
actually, that I thought,

"Wouldn't amit be azing to ride
a motorbike arou wnd theorld?"

I think the most incredible
thing yoabout ur story is, like,

the deattitus that were around
at the time when you did it.

No one cared, no one was interested...
Nobody wanted w.to kno

and, in f act,
quite toon the ctrary,

the faetmous lter that
you got from a bikzie magane.

I got the famous Bike
magazine letter, which was...

Well, I've got it here,
but I don't need to read it out.

What's the story?

Ea - Yh, read it out.

- Yeah.
- Come on.

It's real juicy.

This is thine origal letter
I received from them.

- B magazine.
- And I basicallyth sent em

a picture of me on my bike,

and they said, "Dear Elspeth",

Brecon said he'd t writehis
lett her bute can't

'cause his tongue's
jammed his typewriter.

Me? I'd like to yooffer u
sponsorship around the world,

"but I think it woua ld be waste
and a shame for London."

- Holy God.
- Wow.

Boy, is that a foot in the mouth
that is a hard one to get out...

Yeah... E yven ears later.

That was me in Iran.

That wasn iLeadh in Lakh.

That was me in India.

Wow. T Look athat.

So, this was taken literally
the day before I left,

d anthat was taken
when I got back,

and I just love
those two pictures. I'

m really glad that I traveled
when I did, becauswoe the rld...

It really was a
sort of adventure,

and I-I know it sounds
a bit daft, but I almotst fel

like an explorgoer
ing out into the world...

Weaell, yh, some people
are scared to go, yeah.

Into this, like,
noun-unkwn world,

and I was there
and I was on the edge,

and... and that' ws whatas great
and that's what's made it,

you know, a real aredventu.

Wow.

My God.

I thought I had a view
inat my fl in London.

the pioneers that paved the way,

Morning, day three,

and it's n bothingut green
for miles.

It's the kind of
view you dream about

when youba head ck in time
to Stonehenge.

Reedusl don't know
what to expect.

I mean s, I'veeen the picturet
ofhe rocks, you know,

but that's about it.

Seems like a lot of work

for somebooudy
thsands of years ago

to lift up -ton rocks
to look at some stars.

Aliens.

There... is that it
right there, dude?

There it is. No Way.

Look at that.

There it is. I didn'tze reali
we were that close.

UdWow, de.

At ongst the ruins of Britain's
most famous ancient monument,

druidsra celebte
the longest day of the year.

Stohenge is a circle
of humongous stones.

Ou Obvisly, the.
Onumberne question is,

how the hell dthid
ese stones get here,

and wh
at isthe significance of th?

When you go to Stonehenge
and you toucsth the ones,

which I have, u and yothink,

"Wow, this is like
, years old."

Something that old from
a civilization so far ago

is still heruse for to see.

T' Les go.

Right bohere, y.

Aliens.
Says so right there on the wall.

I me an, you think about it.

Movin' a four-ton stone
by hand miles.

I can barely push my cat
outta bed.

I have issues, lruike, bshin'
my teeth in the mornin'.

I can barely push my cat
Yeah, that's crazy.

Right, um, well, good morning,
everybody.

My name'ans Juli Richards. At
I'm an archeologist.razy.

I've been invon lved iStonehenge

and this landscape
for yowears n,

and it still exerts
a massive fascination for me.

First answer is, to no, Snehenge
was not created bys. Alien

alt wasn't created p
a masbyeople like theseor me.

Who turned up
at Stonehenge at intervals,

because Stonehenge is a place
that inspires people,

it inspires ideas,
itre inspis theory.

Look at that.

- ThYeah, at is cool.
- That is cool.

LI feelike this is when the
spaceship me down right here.

Yeah.

So, see the inner stones?

L Theyook...
OoThey lk teeny from here.

Those are the blue rocks.

Yeah.

Wow.

There's no quarries, there's
no stones like that around here,

so they ddragge
all these in here.

ThAnd where do you find stones
no stonethat are so square? Here,

ke Li, did they have,
like, hammers and chisels

ye , ars ago?

They had rocks.
They hwiit it th rocks.

Those are a foot
from each other,

lined keup, li,
perfectly parallel.

It is no joke.

Yeah, that's nuts.

Yeatah, th's... Ba-ba.

Big rocks.

D How olis Stonehenge?
I mean, we've all heard...

Well, th-thetey stard off
diggintcg a dih

and a bankabout , years ago,

so B, C. Ye.

Then the big
a stone structures, ears ago,

h whicare what everybody
thinks Stonehenge is,

theaey appred about
years after that.

And that's right at the end
of the Stone Age,

right at the end
of the Neolithic.

But then they carried on
using it and modifying it

for several hundred ye ars after that.
Brought in more stones.

Doin we thk it has something
to do with the stars,

and, I mea n...
It's the... It's the sun.

The sun. Because the
alignment down the avenue

and into tsehe horshoe
of stones,

that's the midsummer sunrise on
the longest... On the solstice.

Yeah... the summer solstice,
longesoft day the year.

But more importantly,

the winter solstice D
onecember the st

ca beuse that's...

I'm convinced that is methe ti

tothat Snehenge was built for.

Light, life...

'causeun the s is life, isn't it?
Right, right.

You know that the sun
inis comg back.

So it's that turning point,
the swinterolstice,

that's the key...
That's the kStey to onehenge.

Wow. Okay.

That guy wl, as coo that Julian.

Yeah. D I likehim.

InJodiana nes. Yeah.

Indiana Julian.

Leaving Stonehenge,
it's incredible to think

thatth with e desire to explore
meaning in this world,

our ancestors built something
they had no model for.

And at its core,
it's a celebration

ourof the light and warmthing
that the sun still brings us.

It makes them seem suddenly
not so different from us.

I expected it to be on
a mountaintop or something.

Right o next tthe freeway.

Drive through Stonehenge.

Jeff arend I a gonna get
a quick bite

and gas upe beforour final leg.

Jeff arend I a gonna get

I grab his buttocks quite a bit.

- Jeffrey, good to meet you.
- Hi.

Ian's music has always

transcended genres
by doing the unexpected.

Adluding fte to hard rock,
he helped make Jethro Tull

one of the most memorable
bands of all time.

Someone hawith tt much genius,

you'd expect itot
rub off on Andy,

but, you know,
we're still waiting.

Let's go and see if we can
grab u some, h... cup of tea

or something of interest.
That'll be awesome.

What a beautiful home.

This is inamazg.

How old isho this use?
When was it originally built?

Well, this is not an old.

The one d we useto livwaen
s, th century.

Wow.

So, that was kind of old.

But this is a new house.

It's, I , think.

New house... .

Yeah, well, people imagine,
I suppose, that, you know,

it's the rock-adstar p,
you know,

and there'd be some
sort of, uich, musal equivalent

to Hugh Hefner's man
sion, but it...

Right... it's... it's
actually comp oletelypposite.

I'm up early 'cause I have
to feed the chickens,

so u it's, h... life is really
rather pedantic and boring.

Do you record here at all, or...

Yeah, I have a studio in the, um.
U Yodo?

Wh-which we use mostly
for rehearsals.

But it'd be really nice
if we got a cup of tea.

Ma-Maybe get ours Jeevechappy
to come here and see if

we can, - see if we can get a
nice cup of... Jeeves. Ev Jees.

The gooey stuff. Okay.

E gooey stuff

Tell me honestly what you think.

Peculiarly British thing
called Marmite.

Yoeru eith love it or hate it.

- I like it.
- Do you like it?

It's a secret recipe,

and it's a very powerful taste.
It tastes like a...

Like a waffle, kind of.

It's... it's like a

it's like a sort of pancake
on steroids.

- That's really good.
- Cheers. Good health.

ReWhat a you doing?

Er The's nothing more emblematic

of thiars eaan
th the country estate,

and tear uing itp
with these bikes,

it's punk clmeets assical...

Just the kind of thing
I'd expect from Ian.

And doing it with some of
my favorite peoplee in thworld?

It doesn't gteet betr than this.

Th aat waswesome.

I ran out of gas out

You kindnt of we rogue a couple times.
I did, yeah.

If nothing else, we gocould
dirt bike riding in Georgia.

Derson Yep, that's me.

Andy had to head home.

Just means
there's more food for us.

Have you always wanted
to play music?

Th Pat waslan "C."

Plan "A" bwas toe a policeman.

Why? Why'd you have
tha at as desire? Like...

I... Just, Ise suppo, because,
ultimately, I'm...

I'm...
I'm... I'm not 'a rockn' ro.

I'm a law-abiding citizen.

And being on tour as a rock star
and you see so many things

a thatren't by-the-book
and law-abiding,

like, what do you think?

I... Py robablbecause I don't
actually see them that much.

- You don't?
- I-Ith read e stories.

We were on to...

We... We wersue the pport actLe
for d Zeppelin back in ...

Mo.

And torhe rum was

that it was a wild, crazy, yo

u know, ride that they were on.

The... The stories of Zeppelin
in hotels is kind of legendary.

Yeah. Ou - Y didn't wanna be

onam the se floor
as John Bonham,

because his...
His schtick was to go

and, you know, pee in the ice mach.
The ice machines.

Just for a bit of a laugh.

And, um, so there was that
kind o of sidef it...

Right... that, partly was,
really ' rockn' roll, but...

That can't be your craziest
rock 'n' roll story.

Y as thesaid, what happens
on the crew bus

stayhes on t crew bus.

Do you eeinjoy bng on to ur,
or you don't enjoy it?

It'sli just ke
everything else, isn't it?

It's a bit of
a love/hatg, e thin

where you...
You know, you think,

"Thank God tovhat's er.

"I don't have to do that again
for another week." th Ank you.

By four or five
days down the line,

you're kind of getting a little twitchy.
A little itchy? Yeah.

Then you gotta get out there again.
Yeah.

But I'm... no You kw,
I'm... I'm now years old,

and... and the band's been
going for years.

That's amazing, yeah.
A It's kind of a...

You think, how l... howong can t?

Or is it just sordme wei
obsession you can't give up?

- Yea fh.
- Iind it crazy.

Like, my... my son's now,
and he listense to thmusicp?

Thatte I lisned to
when I was .

Yeah, well, that's the strange
heritage, isn't it? Good music.

Yeah,
yeah. -The things that you hor

asmu, sicians
or as actors or as writers.

Yor whatever you do yeah.
Thin the creative arts,

it becomes a bit timeless,
you know, in the sense

hethat tre are
these absolutes almost,

that the great things
that were done,

even if it was
before you wrnere bo...

- Yeah.
- It's so accessible now.

Right.
The more time I spend here,

the more I realizeat
th Britain's rigid heritage

has inadvertently provided
the perfect breeding ground

r foits subversive attitudes.

The weighiht of story
drives people

to push harder and e, xplore

to find the passion to c
reate and influence cultur,

and that adds a strength
and clarity

I've rarely found elsewhere.

Right here, it's definitely
the real thing.

I can't beliAneve dy
knows how to ride this whole.

Yeah, whatha was tt?
I don't know.

I've been trying to get him on a bike
for eight years. I'm not sure...

I'm not sure if he ever shifted,
by the way.

He may have... ng to get him on a bike for
eight years. He might not. I'm not sur.

He may have beenrs in fit gear
the whole time.
