Kenya to Somaliland
Simon Reeve travels from the coral coast of Kenya to the troubled Horn of Africa on the third leg of his Indian Ocean journey.
On the stunning and remote island of Kiwayu, he meets women who make a living from making handicrafts from the mountains of plastic pollution that fetch up on their beach. But this is also the site of the tragic murder of British tourist David Tebbutt and the kidnapping of his wife Judith by Somali pirates.
In war-torn Mogadishu, capital of Somalia and source of the piracy epidemic in the Indian Ocean, Simon travels with the African peacekeeping force Amisom. On the frontline, with bullets flying around, Simon learns that these underfunded Ugandan soldiers are actually fighting a bloody war with al-Shabaab, a violent Islamist militia linked to al-Qaida.
In neighbouring Somaliland, Simon meets some of the thousands of Somalis fleeing the fighting and famine as well as some of the pirates, locked up in prison.
