. >> can you take me to the turkmenistan border? yeah, okay, great. i'm heading to the highly dictatorial country of turkmenistan, to see the ancient archaeological ruins of merv. to get to the border is just over half an hour's drive. filming in uzbekistan has been no picnic, lots of restrictions on what we can do, but turkmenistan should be even worse. it's been difficult to get permission to go in, and i've been told in no uncertain terms that we cannot film until we get to the actual ruins at merv. so, we're going, we're doing it, should be worth it, it's supposed to be an amazing place. but we can't film until we get there. from bukhara across the turkmenistan border, it's a journey of around 200 miles or so to the ancient ruins of merv. today, merv is marooned completely off-the-beaten-track in the remote and rarely visited turkmenistan desert. but historically it was a crucially strategic and very busy silk road junction. in its heyday, nearly 1,000 years ago, merv stood alongside cairo, damascus and baghdad as one of the islamic world's greate
