This is the story of one Englishman`s obsession with a half-frozen, roughly duck-shaped island in the cold North Atlantic. ` Icel&, Defrosted` is less about wars over cod, flight-halting volcanoes & globe-shattering financiers, & more about relaxing in natural hot pots, sharing barbeques in howling winter storms & eating waffles & rhubarb jam while watching playful Arctic foxes.
