C貌 mheud againn as urrainn a r脿dh gu robh sinn a-riamh ann an Antarctica? B' urrainn do mharaiche T貌mas MacLe貌id 脿 Le貌dhas a r脿dh gu robh e ann tr矛 tursan agus gun do choisinn e d脿 Bhonn P貌lar airson a shaothair.
Bha T貌mas an luib nan cuairtean eachdraidheil aig Raibeard Scott air an Terra Nova agus aig Ernest Shackleton air an Endurance 's an Quest a dh' Antarctica ach 's gann gu bheil e貌las aig daoine ann an Le貌dhas air an sgeulachd aige. Tha Cairist矛ona Allon, a bha air aon turas a dh' Antarctica i fh猫in, 100 bliadhna an d猫idh do Th貌mas a dhol ann an toiseach, a' siubhal a Chanada far na bh脿saich e, an t貌ir air sgeulachd an duine air an d' thug am fear saidheans ainmeil Seumas Marr an t-ainm "...an iceman to his fingertips".
Seaman Thomas MacLeod from Lewis was a crew member of Robert Scott's Terra Nova expedition and of Ernest Shackleton's Endurance and Quest expeditions to Antarctica. He was also one of the few seamen ever to have been awarded two Polar Medals. Christina Allon, who visited Antarctica 100 years after Thomas first went there, travels to Canada to discover more about the ordinary seaman who was a part of extraordinary historical events and who died in 1960 in Kingston, Ontario.
