If Sir David doesn't do it for you, try Dr. Alice Roberts' drool show on human origins:

...Dr Alice Roberts (Coast, Don't Die Young) traces the extraordinary beginnings of the human story in a landmark series for BBC Two (5 x 60 minutes) – The Incredible Human Journey.

150th, surely?

150th, surely?

150th anniversary of the publication of Origin. (22 November 1859)

200th anniversary of Darwin's birth (12 February 1809).

When Darwin published his theory of evolution 150 ago, the foundations were shaky and his evidence weak, says biologist Armand Leroi.

Just watched the first program of the Darwin season. I was captivated for the entire 90 minutes. One of the best science shows I've watched - well constructed, paced and presented. Calling it a history of Darwin's theory simply doesn't do justice to it. I hope it is broadcast soon on the beeb's international channels.
