Finally something worth flipping the PC off and the TV on for. Thanks for the head's up.

hadn't spotted that one coming up - thanks

Incidentally, I see one of the references for the programme is for Butser Ancient Farm. I went there on Tuesday , accompanying a coachload of 7&8 year olds. The reconstructed Celtic round houses there are really good. Lovely fire on the go inside the largest one, which was very welcome on such a wet, cold and windy day!

Overall the site is quite small, but worth checking out if you're around that way (Surrey/Hampshire). They do interesting little day courses too. http://www.butserancientfarm.co.uk/

Well spotted but it clashes with Holby City...

Been looking forward to this one. Neil Oliver's always great, so to see him take on my favourite period of British history should be a treat!
