In this program, BBC security correspondent Frank Gardner travels to Saudi Arabia to challenge that misconception and examine what the future may bring to the Gulf's most powerful country. From the palaces of Riyadh to the bustling backstreets of Jeddah, Gardner interviews women's rights activists, journalists, a popular, irreverent stand-up comedian, and even members of the monarchy to reveal what makes the famously secretive Saudi Arabia tick.
