Thanks for the vid. I found it vapid though (as I do most US documentaries) - no need to watch a moment of it - it could have been a radio show (at 1/100th of the budget) and still have delivered the same message (i.e. did they actually say anything I didn't already know?).

The previous Portillo (Horizon) one was much more thought provoking. I just watched it again, after a couple of years, and still just as relevant. You can't beat a good BBC prog.

yeah, I pretty much thought the same, but it was there and all it took was a C+P. I did learn a few facts about the French Revolution though.
