Wed 16/2/11: 9pm A History of Ancient Britain on BBC2

2/4 Exploring the arrival of farming in Britain around 4000BC, and the changes this way of life brought for the people, from pottery to new belief system.

The above program is a little slow so if you want action turn to Sky Drama at 8pm for Pearl Harbor. A better film, but slow in places is The Illusionist at Midnight on ITV2. The period mystery is great for its authentic dress but not its authentic story or effects. They lack authenticity but they do have charm.
