Not to appear ungrateful, but the FPP link is to an upload where YouTube has automatically stabilized any jerky footage contained within, rendering much of the documentary basically unwatchable. Here is an upload that's not been stabilized -- No guarantee it'll stay up for long, of course!

For anyone with the appropriate geography,* the BBC iPlayer has the official video.

* Or who can approximate it.

Mark Cousins has a lot to answer for.

There was a halfway decent anthology series called "Fear Itself" that aired in 2008. By halfway decent I mean that half of the episodes were decent.
