First
Great to see Dame Joanna in my favorite country. Thank You! ❤️🇯🇵
Thank you, Joanna… love your British panache! And the shot at dawn of the cranes feeding in the river was otherworldly… 😃
Love Joanna! Thank you for visiting my country!
Patsy was here😁
Joanna simply does not age!!!
Very nice, thank you for uploading more full episodes recently
Absolutely lovely!
Lovely!
Great content, can do without the model shots
Got Patsy vibes drinking that sake!
So beautiful. So charming. And infinitely intriguing.
Japan's nice, too.
More Joanna, please!
Joanna–you really are a treasure!
Thank You! Ms Joanna Lumley!….Living Vicariously from the US/Mexico Border….God Bless and Feliz Navidad!!!
She needs to team up with Peter Barakan .
Why didn't we get this in the 80s, when it would have helped?
Absolutely breathtaking beauty. It's people the same. Thank you, Joanna! The entire world could learn that Nuclear is NEVER the way to go. The ghost town.
EXCELLENT! love it when she said " drinking in the service of the program" 🙂
OH I was hoping to see the training in the dojo in the opening segment, as I trained with Higaonna Sensi of the IOGKF. I hope there are more episodes. It would be nice to see him.
Can’t wait for part 2! Thanks Joanna 🤍
Happened upon this video by accident – so glad I did. What a lovely presentation. . . looking forward to more . . . .thank you.
I just love her.
I have always admired Joanna, she is beautiful, elegant, sexy, great actress, this documentary is fabulous, thank you🌹
Looking forward for more.
It is great to see an European enjoying Japan!
The world is so big. And, I am so small. And, there will never be enough time.
It's the hot old bird from that Scorsese flick.
I love sharing the world with you Joanna!
That bit about the SDF not being allowed into combat isn't true. It's far more accurate to say that they are not allowed to be the aggressors.
Joanna truly IS Absolutely Fabulous!!! I could watch Joanna read a phone book! Her personality & looks are Gorgeous! I’m now going to search for anything featuring HER. 💙💜💚
I'm happy for Joanna, but I really wish Patsy Stone was the host.
It's kind of wonderful that a British actor, who was born in India, is giving us a very elegant world tour.
