Dire Straits
Michael arrives at the border of Niger and Algeria, the lawless, desolate region where Mark Thatcher famously got lost, and makes a quick detour into Libya to attend the last reunion of the Desert Rats of Tobruk. In Ceuta, a Spanish enclave on Morocco's coast, Michael talks to would-be African immigrants before returning to his original starting point, Gibraltar.
