[Jack]

Tuesday night 21.00

BBC 2 After Bannockburn, Edward Bruce invades Ireland. Pt 1 of 2.

BBC 4 The Normans, from raiders to nobility. Pt 1 of 3.

[frank xerox]

Oooh, the Ireland ones a must watch. Thanks for the tip.

[commissarmoody]

Really wish I could see that in the US.

For those like me annoyed that the one week of the year there are two hours of history programming on and they're on AT THE SAME TIME...

The Normans is repeated at 3am on Wed and 11pm on Thur.

Those of you with Sky might find that the search won't locate "After Bannockburn" (despite offering it as a search choice!) because it's not on BBC2 England and the box knows where you live -- BBC2 Scotland is channel 970.

Blimey, it's not on BBC2 Northern Ireland either. Odd, especially 'cos it concerns this place fairly closely. Ta for that 970 hint, though. (I wonder if it'd be more widely available on the BBC iPlayer?)

No Bannockburn in the NE of England (unless I cannot read!) and i've seen the Norman series before- I'll be watching it on iPlayer though. do you guys not get BBC USA? Maybe it's on there? Or available as a DVD? I don't know- just a couple of suggestions  .
