This ought to be called Simon Schama's Power "Over" Art, his sheer genius as storyteller .

To any tory supporter watching this, imagine if it had been a Labour government that had so disgracefully appeased Nazi Germany in the 5-6 years up to the war , imagine? We would never have the heard the end of it , the tory press would have had a field day ,ramming traitor down every labour MP's...

@Ataradesu Agreed .Can't add any more to that .

Lets face it, there is a good probability that life and even intelligent life exists , trouble is ,with the untold trillions of stars that exist and have existed don't have life though ,failed solar systems, planets that are too hot or too cold or are gas giants (so no solid ground) ,ones filled ...

much better than the rubbish updated version with amanda bleeding holden

It was quite a bold move by the writer in what happened to the character Captain Yates in this story

@WorzelPertweeGummij Heh heh.

would it hurt to do a NON-musical version of beauty and the beast ?

despite the huge hollywood talent in the audience ( gene kelly, kirk douglas,lauren bacall,shirley macclaine) john lennon frankly, makes them look ordinary

I would have had some sympathy for Chapman had he said "I cannot apologize enough for the terrible ,cowardly act I did that night ,shooting an unharmed man from behind who had no idea he was being targeted , I realise now I was mentally ill ,needed help and killing him did not make me happy ,it m...

your one sexy sheila !

I have to say she's better looking than the real thing

@graysonTW You imply that Harris doesn't compare to Collins scientifically ,and you know what ,your right ,Collins is a brilliant man but Isaac Newton ,probably the greatest scientific mind who lived, thought that the pope was the anti -christ , an alchemist who thought he could turn lead into go...

@callisto8413 Quite. Unless China seriously controls its overpopulation and becomes more enviromentaly aware they'll soon take over the US as the worlds biggest polluter. (capitalism, I've noticed is very anti-green )

Caravaggio was the "punk rock" painter of his time ,tearing up the rennaisance rule book and contradicting all conventional art , bowls of fruit in a life and death story , making a god figure into an unhealthy human , clothing jesus in contemporay clothing and keeping him in the shadows , I thin...

Jimi just looks "God -like" on that stage ,no wonder people are trying to climb the stage to get near him.

He'll be a huge star one day

griff reece jones wouldn't hurt a fly !

How could two of the greatest talents in music butcher a classic song like this without a care in the world ? ( perhaps they had their minds on "other " things)

nice looking women in this episode

this a comedy ?

@beano1eye Your right ,I sold no records in america but than I never said I was the biggest thing in UK music since the beatles either like Noel & Liam never stopped saying . 4 million , big deal , the beatles , rolling stones , pink floyd ,led zeppelin ,radiohead piss over that their record sal...

Frazier was at his absolute peak in this fight and did deserve the win, but never forget Ali's 3 1/2 years' forced exile from boxing which took away his speed and accuracy plus the two fights he had prior to facing Frazier (Quarry & Bonavea) were just too soon up to the title fight for allowing h...

Hitch despised the Clintons

Jim Dale and Bernard Bresslaw were underated carry on stars ,Jim was hilarious when he transforms and Bernard could play "ANY" role in carry on brilliantly.

Not just one of the greatest pieces of acting on television ( Michael Gambon) but one of the greatest scenes in TV history.

Sad fact is the vast majority of atheists are white .

"the deadly inland taipan ,only gets aggressive when you yank it up by its tale" - "so lets yank it up by its tale !"

when couldn't my science teacher have been neil de grasse tyson ?

@daniel171095 obviously

Edward Fox seems rather bored in his role

@hotbovril No one can accuse you of "not sitting on the fence" .Pointless ? Thats your opinion professor.

I have to laugh when I see the royal family at "work" ,work being living a life of limitless luxury ,being hand & waited on by servants , flying around the world to wave and smile at the masses ,do a "history of art "course ,wear a uniform with at least 50 decorations ,and pretend to connect wit...

"there's a language barrier"

"he speaks english!"

"yes but he's from texas"

priceless.

the sad thing about Joseph was he could have been a major contender in this season but his own personnal agenda against Ramsay got in the way.

the worst thing anyone can do is to take william lane craig seriously ,hence richard dawkins dismissal of this overhyped self-important man

Hitch never loses his temper with this despicable moron and wins the argument already on that basis.

I never thought of words as things until these two christian idiots pointed me in the right direction, glory to the things that make words! (and vice versa)

most of america's greatest singers in one room together

an incredible bird , unrelated to practically every other bird species living.

Hitch made no secret of his loathing of the Clintons ,more so than the Bush's .

William Lane Craig is the man who demands that atheists and scientists disprove the christian god, than he'll stop believing .Frankly I'm still waiting for him to disprove every other man made god invented, but on the whole I want him to stay a theist ,he amuses.

the sad thing was she never needed plastic surgery ,she had an attractive face ,obviously she was pyschologically obsessed with altering her face . So sad.

yet another classic northern soul song from Motown

@mwells219 And which peaceful utopia do live were people are aloud to brandish loaded guns ,threaten to use them and not suffer the consequences ? Do tell us, smart man, I'm in the mood for taking on a self-righteous pacifist.
