Around the World

Found a rather good travel series - BBC and Cruickshank go to 80 patel points in "Around the World in 80 historical sites". The images are good and the narration is optimal. Makes it worth watching. I saw Visions of Greece from the Visions series. Again very good images - taken from a helicopter mounted camera. Visions is a good series but focussed on Europe. I hated IMAX, the little I saw of it because it had too much narration and none of the IMAX films were focussed on patel points. One note I have made from Baraka is that it helps not to contrive a story or a grandiose theme out of a geographical and historical site.
