I liked it too. I think TT is good at bringing to life what would be to most people a dull hole in a field. And ah, Victor Ambrus, what a star. I just wish they'd computered-up the posts so they were colourful / carved / flapping with flags etc.

I don't much like it when they recap after every advert break like I have the memory of a fruit fly or something. But that seems to be fashionable for a lot of programmes.

If it leaves you with questions and Points of Argument that is also good - at least it's not presented as The Truth, and they admit that lots of it is just speculation. Well, sometimes. And then you'll be geared up to find out more. Which is a good thing.

I like the way You think, as we dont know, who is right ?
Have you seen the new statue in Banbury ?, she has rings on her fingers and bells on her toes.
The spot that they have placed the statue is very interesting, look to the top of Breedon hill, the Banbury stone.
The statue is adjacent to the Banbury cross, but you would have to consider how the energy flows, or any more I say would annoy, Banbury had many crosses, I have been getting some strange reactions, as I wander around with my two little rods, most of the older generations just scoff, but the reaction of the teenagers has been very surprissing, they have gathered around me and have been genuinly interested, the ones that could dowse have been quite shaken, and want to know why. there are some bright kids behind all the metalwork dangling from them, and they know something is not quite right at the moment.
