Episode three takes Joanna from North Wales to the West Country, ending in her home town of London. After stopping in the slate quarries of Blaenau Ffestiniog, Joanna heads to Carmarthen to meet GoCompare singer Wynne Evans. In Cornwall she visits the legendary St Michael's Mount, before heading to Southampton to meet a family of Travelling Showpeople who have been in the fairground business for generations. She also meets a couple who have ‘re-wilded' their 3500-acre country estate. Ending her journey in London, Joanna tracks down Allan Willmott, 95 part of the Windrush Generation whose face she spotted at Tilbury at the beginning of her journey and reflects on what she has seen in her travels.
