The uk one was the best imo. But I do remember the thread about these programs before so I didn't intend this to be a ray loving/hating thread, just that people might not have seen it was on on Sunday.

It was good but from what I remember the rest of the first part of this series is all abroad and just goes over old ground again.... have to wait and see what the second half of the series has in store when it comes out later in the spring! :o):
