Well done Dr Starkey!
The success of a documentary such as this depends on the historian and
because of that this one really couldn't fail! |

Reviewers
I must have watched this
documentary every time it came on the television, so I was
delighted when it came out on DVD. The highlight was reading his
book 'Elizabeth' and this DVD is just as good! The cast is
fantastic, did a really good job but it wouldn't have had the
same effect if Dr Starkey himself had not appeared in it.
Starkey is an amazing historian and is a master story teller.
You are guided through the whole DVD by him, he is a
perfectionist and doesn't miss out a single detail. The most
comforting thing though, is that you can see by his facial
expressions and the tone of his voice that he truly does love
his work!
