Inside the Medieval Mind

[Ursca]

Just saw this on BBC 4 just now and really enjoyed it. A really good insight into the popular thought of the time.
Luckily, it's up online, so you people can enjoy it too!

Inside the Medieval Mind: Knowledge

There's 4 episodes in the series, one on every week. Should keep me occupied for a while.

I click the link and it says it's "only available to play in the UK" (I'm in Denmark).
Just thought you should know. Sounds intriguing though.

 

[Ursca]

...Damn.

Makes sense though, I suppose.

 

[Locke Foreer]

I was enthralled by that.

Stop taunting us non-UK residents.

 

[Archonsod]

You could just use a UK proxy ....

 

[Trooper5445]

And the link to one would be?

 

[Amigo]

it should be private proxy via your friend in UK.

It was a very good series. It was very interesting about how the universities came about in that Knowledge one. Did you see the one on the Gutenberg printing press with Steven Fry? They (read: retired anoraks) made a working replica of the original. Notice also how the theme tune of the adverts for this season is "Purple Haze" on mediaeval instruments

(also: Non UKians, watching our BBCs? How dare you get fine programming for free whilst we have to pay many monies for it? )

I wonder what Arch would do if  disappeared?

 

[Locke Foreer]

Despite the sarcasm and eye rolling he can't help helping others out.

 

[Buxton]

Ey! You're not getting it for free, we have to pay for it!

Ban people in frustration?

I've never actually owned a TV licence Mind you, since every bugger has one of these "TV on demand" interwebs thingamijigs now you may as well ditch the TV altogether. Anything good is available on them; and to be honest if you bought everything decent on telly when it came out on DVD you'd save around £80 on the licence fee alone. In fact, given that the only TV series DVD I got this year was for Christmas, I've made a profit.
