Rediscover the Giant's Causeway as a place where 'nothing is static and everything is changing'.

Stretch your mind around the vastness of time that created the iconic basalt columns of the Giant's Causeway. Let geologist Phillip Doughty be your guide as he interpret the cliffs and transforms the rocks beneath his feet into a turbulent molten landscape. This journey with its geology and craic will forever change how you see County Antrim's spectacular coastline.

This programme is part of a series on the Northern Irish landscape called 'All in a Day's Walk'. The original film is held in the BFI National Archives, courtesy of the UTV Archive.
