THE WONDERS OF EUROPE  
WITH HUGH BONNEVILLE
Here is something interesting for you period set drama lovers: Hugh Bonneville will narrate Studiocanal's new four part documentary series THE WONDERS OF EUROPE (L’Europe des Merveilles) taking the
 viewers on a grand tour of the architectural landmarks of Europe in the international version of the French programme. As 'Variety' reports, this new
 high-end docu-series focusing on European cultural heritage and architecture was unveiled at Unifrance Rendez-Vous in Biarritz, the international market entirely dedicated to French TV programs.

THE WONDERS OF EUROPE
 is
 enhanced by French composer Cascadeur’s original music and, for the 
international version, Bonneville’s narration.  The first season reveals
 the story 
of the people who built four European wonders, the Palace of 
Versailles, and the temples of the Acropolis, but also the Louvre in 
Paris, and the 
Alhambra in Granada. Watching the Acropolis being built 
before your very eyes or Versailles being enlarged by order of Louis XIV
 to become one of the
 most beautiful palaces in the world with its 
73-meter long Hall of Mirrors and sumptuous gardens are just a couple of
 the time travel trips that the show
 takes you on. Currently in the 
making, season two will also include four parts: two on monuments in 
France and probably one each in Germany and Italy. A third season is 
already under discussion.
