What a great programme and advert for Portugal! Such wonderful Wildlife and beautifully filmed! Oh, and the cork stripping was good too! How skilful. I have seen many trees that have been stripped and marked with a number but never seen the trees actually being stripped. Very interesting and good to see that they have got the contamination of the cork under control. I hope this programmme will go a long way in allaying fears of cork wine contaminating and that future trade of the cork farmers will be prosperous and of course that will help to secure the habitat for so much wildlife.</blockquote>
