Excellent documentary series from the BBC

I watched all eight episodes of this series and has to be one of the best documentaries from the BBC in recent years, along with the Walking With... programmes. It was usually screened between 9 and 10pm on Wednesdays.

Alan Titchmarsh takes us through the History of the British Isles, from the very beginnings, through Prehistoric times, the present day and a glimpse into the future.

One of the best episodes was the one including the sequence where it showed you dinosaurs roaming around present day London. Another episode had Alan dressed up as a caveman and mingling with people, who hardly noticed him.

Well done BBC for this series.
