Didn't we have a thread for this in the dim and distant past ?

Anyway, my first suggestion is this:

Someone has put all of the Michael Wood "In search of the Dark Ages episodes up on youtube, they are unavailable on dvd and possibly any other format.

Anyway interesting to see how tv history documentaries have changed over the last 30 or so years and makes an interesting contrast with his recent work for the beeb, that covers some of the same territory. 

I don't know the exact running order of the episodes, but know Offa was first and Boadicea next.

It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein's brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops.
