Our Man in Majorca

Inside Story – Season 16

Every year the island of Majorca draws two million British tourists, but the combination of cheap alcohol, high spirits and scorching weather can spell trouble for some. Her Majesty's representative in Palma de Majorca, John Blakemore, has to pick up the pieces, working in one of the world's busiest British consulates. Inside Story joins him and his wife Joan as they deal with this year's summer season.
