I often wonder about the very young who may well learn their history only from TV and movies.

Love that music behind the clips, mairdie! The clips fit it so very well.

I worry for the kids not being taught real history as well.

I’m in college and the history course I took at another institution was taught by a lady who insisted on her own Islamic centric view of things. I don’t know any history majors and the current history department is in the clutches of a poorly rated professor who was the architect of well-intentioned attempts to make us all well-rounded but which actually just prevents cross-disciplinary double-majors from being able to exist. I go to a good school. There is a fairly high applicant rejection rate. History as a discipline is definitely in trouble.

My biggest disappointment for Dr Who... He didn’t get any when he had that chance...

These videos are amazing. Had to watch the Vincent video three times to take it all in. Beautifully done.
