苏格兰的伟大之旅（2010）

century. Here in Scotland?
哦，是的。是的。特别是在这里。
Oh, aye. Aye. Particularly here.
你认为其他地方也有类似于高尔夫的游戏吗？哦，在整个世界范围内。
Do you think there were other games
similar to golf being played
elsewhere? Oh, throughout the world.
正如我所说，用棍子打石头是人的本能，不是吗？
As I say, it's man's instinct to hit
a stone with a stick, isn't it?
但我们为自己要求。
But we claim it for ourselves.
好吧，直到你从地上挖出一个洞，你有一套规则，我们制定了这套规则
Well, until you cut a hole
out of the ground and you have
a set of rules, which we developed
在17世纪末，这就是为什么我们声称它是我们的游戏。对。
in the late 17th century, that's why
we claim it as our game. Right.
然后你可以说，圣安德鲁斯作为一个朝圣者的城市再次崛起
And then you could say that St
Andrews rose as a pilgrim city again
在我有生之年，在 "高尔夫之乡 "的旗帜下。
under the banner of "the home
of golf" during my lifetime.
所以那是非常令人放心的。所以这是第二次朝圣。赞成。
So that was very reassuring.
So it's a second pilgrimage. Aye.
看着那整个维多利亚时代，真是令人惊讶
It was amazing watching
that whole Victorian era
和所有来这里吹海风的先生和女士、
and all the gentlemen and the ladies
coming in here to take the sea air,
所有这些课程如雨后春笋般出现。
all these courses
springing up everywhere.
'东海岸是理想的高尔夫领地。
'The east coast was ideal
golfing territory.
'有了它的沙土和无尽的沙丘、
'With it's sandy soil
and endless dunes,
几十个林克斯球场在法夫和东洛锡安兴起。
'dozens of links courses sprang up
across Fife and East Lothian.
'你可能已经猜到了，我从来就不是一个高尔夫球手。
'As you might have guessed,
I've never been a golfer.'
哦，现在，那是一个勇敢的镜头，先生！
Oh, now, that was a braw shot, sir!
'但我想我已经开始掌握它的窍门了。
'But I think I'm beginning
to get the hang of it.'
为了完成我的下一段旅程、
To make the next leg of my journey,
我需要从圣安德鲁斯到北贝里克。
I need to get from St Andrews
to North Berwick.
在维多利亚时代，这段旅程可以很容易地通过蒸汽船进行。
In Victorian times,
this journey would have been
easily made by steamer.
但是，可悲的是，以进步的名义，蒸汽船、
But, sadly, in the name of progress,
the steamers,
与许多东海岸的火车线路一起，早已不复存在。
together with many of the east coast
train lines, are long gone.
因此，为了跨越福斯河的短距离跳跃，我不得不
To make the short hop across
the Forth, I've therefore had to
诉诸于一种不太常规的运输方式--微型飞机。
resort to a less than conventional
mode of transport - microlight.
还有什么比从海鸥的角度看风景更好的方法呢？
What better way to see the sights
than a seagull's-eye view?
下面是五月岛。
Down there is the Isle of May.
早在维多利亚时代，就有定期的蒸汽船服务
Back in Victorian times
there was a regular steamer service
这使得游客可以探索一个九世纪的凯尔特人小教堂的废墟。
that allowed visitors
to explore the ruins of
a ninth-century Celtic chapel.
但维多利亚人对巴斯岩更加着迷。
But the Victorians were even
more fascinated by the Bass Rock.
很受运动员的欢迎，他们来这里拍摄燕鸥的照片、
Popular with sportsmen, who came to
take pot shots at the gannets,
其偏远和孤立的位置使其成为理想的地点
its remote and isolated position
made it the ideal location
为苏格兰的第一座高度安全的监狱。
for Scotland's
first high-security prison.
早在16世纪、
Back in the 16th century,
囚犯们被送到这块孤独的岩石上煎熬和死亡。
prisoners were sent to languish
and die on this lonely rock.
安全地回到了陆地上、
Safely back on land,
我继续我的旅程，前往美丽的海滨城市北贝里克、
I'm continuing my journey to the
pretty seaside town of North Berwick,
布莱克指南》将其描述为 "东海岸最时尚的饮水场所"。
which Black's Guidebook
describes as "the most fashionable
watering place on the east coast".
今天看来，这可能令人惊讶，但在100年前
It may seem surprising today,
but 100 years ago
北贝里克是一个国际著名的度假胜地。
North Berwick was an internationally
famous holiday destination.
那是一个真正的名人热点。
It was a real celebrity hotspot.
最富有的人来到这里。
The richest of the rich came here.
世界领导人和皇室成员都享受着这个被称为北方比亚里茨的小镇的乐趣。
World leaders and royalty
all enjoyed the delights of a town
known as the Biarritz of the North.
一系列闪亮的富人、名人和有权势的人来到这里
A glittering array of rich,
famous and powerful people came here
留在福斯湾寒冷的海岸上。
to stay on the chilly shores
of the Firth of Forth.
威尔士王子来了，首相在林克斯球场打高尔夫球、
The Prince of Wales came, the Prime
Minister played golf on the links,
而欧洲王室成员则享受着令人振奋的新鲜空气。
while European royals
enjoyed the bracing fresh air.
北贝里克沉浸在名人来访所带来的荣耀之中、
North Berwick basked in the reflected
glory of its celebrity visitors,
他在这里的出现将该度假村推到了豪门排行榜的第一位。
whose presence here pushed the resort
to number one in the top
of the posh charts.
北贝里克的受欢迎程度部分归功于维多利亚时代的痴迷。
Part of North Berwick's popularity
was down to the Victorian obsession
与海水的健康益处。
with the health benefits of
sea water.
很快，时尚的、富有的和注重健康的人
Very quickly, the fashionable, rich
and health conscious
他们正在向盐水中走去，准备跳下去。
were making a beeline for the briny,
ready to take the plunge.
现在，最初的想法根本不是要去游泳
Now, the original idea
wasn't to go for a swim at all
但要把自己完全沉浸在海里。
but to immerse yourself
completely in the sea.
这实际上是一件相当复杂的事情
This was actually
quite a complicated affair
并且非常强调谨慎和谦虚 --
and great emphasis was placed on
discretion and modesty -
以免最微小的肉体出现在公众面前。
lest the tiniest bit of flesh
appeared on public display.
这无疑说明了这套不太讨喜的泳装。
Which no doubt accounts for this less
than flattering bathing costume.
好了，开始吧！
Right, here goes!
提供马拉式洗澡机
Horse-drawn bathing machines
were provided
供那些热衷于将自己浸泡在深海中的人使用。
for the use of those
keen to dunk themselves in the deep.
这些车轮上的小屋提供了一个隐蔽的更衣室、
These huts on wheels provided
a discreet changing room,
绅士和女士们可以在那里脱衣服
where gentlemen and ladies
could undress
并在助手的帮助下，为他们的振奋人心的磨难做准备。
and, with the help of an assistant,
prepare for their
invigorating ordeal.
现在，听我说，你必须是一个非常坚韧的灵魂。
Now, take it from me, you have to be
a very hardy soul indeed
来享受福斯湾的冰冷海水。
to enjoy the chilly waters
of the Firth of Forth.
但没有痛苦就没有收获。
But there's no pain without gain.
而且，正如我以前的体育老师常说的那样，如果受伤了，就是对你有好处。
And, as my old gym teacher used to
say, if it hurts it's doing you good.
所以，在完全期待着彻底的痛苦中、
So, in full expectation of
utter agony,
我即将采取这一举措。
I'm about to take the plunge.
哇!
Whoa!
呃!啊!啊...
Ugh! Ugh! Ahh...
其实也没那么糟。哼!
It's not that bad actually. Urgh!
我可以在这里呆上一整天。
I could spend all day out here.
呃!
Ugh!
富裕的家庭会在整个夏天到北贝里克去度假、
Wealthy families would decant to
North Berwick for the whole summer,
住在度假村的许多好酒店中的一个。
staying in one of the resort's
many good hotels.
但是，就像蒸汽机和铁路改变了北贝里克这样的海滨城市一样、
But, just as steamers and railways
had transformed seaside towns
like North Berwick,
内燃机的发明
the invention of
the internal combustion engine
不仅改变了人们到达目的地的方式、
changed not only how people got to
their destination,
但他们去了哪里，停留了多长时间。
but where they went
and how long they stayed.
为了了解更多情况，我将乘坐一辆非常合适的车辆继续我的旅程--一辆老式戴姆勒汽车。
To find out more, I'm continuing
my journey in a highly appropriate
vehicle - a vintage Daimler.
坐在副驾驶座上的是旅游历史学家杰玛-麦格思。
In the passenger seat
is travel historian Gemma McGrath.
而我们正驾驶着一辆非常豪华的戴姆勒时期的汽车。
And we're driving along
in a very luxurious period Daimler.
现在，当然，在20世纪20年代或30年代，这将是一个极其昂贵的装备。
Now, of course, this would have been
an extremely expensive piece of kit
back in the 1920s or 1930s.
什么样的人会驾驶这样的机器？
What kind of people would have
been driving machines like this?
嗯，非常富有的人。
Well, the very rich.
最早能买♥♥得起汽车的人是上层社会。
The people who first could
