Posted - 12 Jan 2012 : 10:20:11 Morslieb, are you sure it was Channel 4? I ask because I have just googled it and come up with this, which claims to be BBC

Still, should be good even if it is different to that mentioned! |

Posted - 12 Jan 2012 : 10:19:13 I thought the programme a bit broken-backed: the narrative was lame and the analysis not particularly penetrating. But then, I suppose these rules have led me to expect vile abominations everywhere, rather than only some poor weak defenceless old women. ... Or were they? |

Posted - 11 Jan 2012 : 22:37:39 I tried to catch the Witchfinder General documentary on UK Channel 4 catch up but it does not appear to be available yet? I did notice Gods and Monsters that was shown last month is still available for a few more days. Episode 2 is quite good and it gives a good overview of plague doctors / apothecaries and the inner workings of their 'beaky masks'.

Posted - 10 Jan 2012 : 07:00:47 Nearly missed it in the listings myself, tucked away in the small hours and small print. I have recorded it so I'll see if it's any good soon.
