Mark Steel Lectures

I've been enjoying a series on TV called "Great Thinkers of Our Time" or The Mark Steel Lectures which aired on BBC between 1999 and 2002.  The series takes a comedic yet factual twist on a number of revolutionary figures from history portraying them in the present modern day world.

I recently found that Mark Steel has made 8 episodes of this series available for download on his website so I thought I'd share the link for anyone who might be interested:

In those available for download he covers:

Aristotle
Byron
Chaucer
Cromwell
Darwin
Descartes
Freud
Newton

You can find most of the other episodes on google video!
