Yesterday evening I was glued to the TV for hours watching BBC Two (the less main stream channel of the Beeb). I haven't watched so much TV in one stint for a long time.
They broadcast a trilogy of documentries in one big chunk about Howard Carter's discovery of the tomb of Tutankhamun. It was a lavish, well reasearched series of documentaries, each an hour long, presented by Prof. Chris Frayling of the Royal College of Art. (He was a good presenter, engaging, not at all the stuffy old scholar but someone quite at home with this medium).
Next was an intimate and fairly unsually structured documentary chronicling the life of Peter Sellars. The visuals we solely made up from clips of movie footage that he shot himself. They were of his life at home and life on the film set etc. There was no narrator, voice-overs were solely edited interviews with family, friends, people who worked for him, people he worked with him, actors directors (including rare interview snippets from Kubrik).
Next a dramatization of a Terence Rattigan play reworked by David Mammet. Afterwards there were highlights of an open air concert at Gladstonbury. However, I had already switched channels to watch soccer highlights of some exciting premier leagues games played earlier that day.
Not everyones cup of tea but I found it to be an enjoyable evening. TV can be good.
