Living in the Falkland Islands | How 3,600 People Live Closer to Antarctica Than to London | 4K Living in the Falkland Islands: 3,600 people, 13,000 km from London and only 1,100 km from Antarctica. Why do they stay at the edge of the world, and why do they still sound so English? This film follows ten questions about life in the Falkland Islands. How far away is London really, and who was here first? What happened in 1982, and why is there still an army on the islands? Who pays the bills, what does distance add to the price of everything, and what happens when someone gets hurt? How do children in Camp go to school, who else lives here, is it lonely, and why does everyone turn up at the racecourse on Boxing Day?
