When Darcus Howe came to England from Trinidad 40 years ago, he found a people who were certain of themselves and who knew what it was to be English. Now, as we enter a new millennium, as Scotland and Wales seek a semi-detached relationship to England, and with Europe looming ever nearer, Darcus discovers a people in the throes of an identity crisis. "The old England of self-confidence, of people knowing who they are, knowing where they have come from, that's dead... the whole of England is in a flux." They are lost, confused and even ashamed to admit they are English, argues Darcus who, in this new, three-part series, travels the length and breadth of the country to discover why the English don't seem to want to be English anymore.

Filmed in 1999 Darcus Howe takes a personal journey to discover what it is to be English. This episode features the late Bernard Manning.
