After Rome

I was dubious about this because it was Boris Johnson, but I enjoyed the first one.  I've almost given up on TV because most programs seem to think that their target audience has the attention span of a goldfish, so this was a pleasant surprise.

Some interesting thoughts in there on the interaction between Islam and the (Christian?) West.

I've been really enjoying this - it's intelligent and perceptive - although sometimes I wish Boris would restrain his occasional silliness a bit more.

I really liked it.  Beautifully shot, entertaining, not dumbed-down, and I learned things.  Can't ask for more.
It takes blood and guts to be this cool but I'm still just a cliché.
