I'm aware that I'm probably inviting flames by posting something like this so soon after the US election, but anfter watching the last episode in the BBC's new political series, I decided that this series is required viewing for most people, be they British or American.

Probably would have been better before the election, but anyway...

First, the BBC's official site for the programme.

Now, I'm not sure whether this next bit falls outside the board rules or not. Someone has recorded the series into a series of BitTorrent files, which can be found here. Now the description looks a bit off putting, but it is very interesting viewing. If nothing else, it serves as a recap of the events of the last 20 years.
