    This and another Burke creation - The Day The Earth Changed - are among the best documentary series ever done.

    Both series convey a very real sense of the random churning of humanity, fortuitous little pushes forward or sideways-then-forward-again, on the path to modern technology and how it has transformed society, our lives. And all is done in the most delightful, tongue-in-cheek manner, a sense of both joy and intellect vibrating throughout.
    Masterful stuff.
