It's the 2nd viewing of this series for me. It beats the usual "travelog" into a cocked hat, IMHO. It reveals Tony's constant urge to connect with our heritage, which can't be wrong.


I think Tony Robinson is great - my comment about his 'almost disingenuous manner' was meant to be a compliment (it was rather late when I wrote it) my meaning being he deliberately presents the programme as though he knows less than he really does. Asking questions, for example, that we know he already knows the answer to.

PS:I thought this was a new series (he did something similar - Walking Through History I think) as the people who look after the Richard Jefferies Museum were dead chuffed about his fairly recent visit.
