It sounds obscure and depressing but is a fascinating and uplifting story of the inhabitants of the world's most isolated British island Tristan de Cunha. People have only lived there since 1803 and all 300 inhabitants are descended from seven settlers and two victims of shipwreck, half of whom, bizarrely, were asthma sufferers.
