Thames: Britain's Great River With Tony Robinson [Region 2]

We loved Tony Robinson's journey down the Thames. It was educational and entertaining, and we loved his storytelling. Like his other documentaries like Time Team and Walking Through History, Tony wove an entertaining, educational and exciting story that kept us watching, and learning. It was also great to see that efforts are underway to make the Thames cleaner and full of life again, as we remember the bad old days when it was a filthy cesspool.

Very good

Whether it be British countryside, Australian city centres, Tony Robinson is ine of the best at doing this sort of programme.In this series, he travels the length of the Thames, from source to sea, introducing us to people who live and work on the river.We discover its geography, history, ecology, technology and learn Tony's own connections to Old Father Thames.The four episodes cover rural landscapes, towns and palaces, locks and weirs, industrial and post industrial aspects of the River.There's something for everyone.

A brilliant tv series so I was so pleased that it was available on dvd. Tony Robinson was very informative and walked the length of The Thames with information on many diverse aspects of river life, taking part in many of these himself on his travels. Hugely enjoyable and would recommend.

Great stuff. Definitely comes with English HOH subtitles.

Don't usually like Tony Robinson but he has done a great job of his trip down the Thames. As a Londoner I appreciate what he's done. Glad I bought it

Disappointing as although he used a lot of different means of transport I felt there was a huge amount of the river he missed there are about 5points of it be finds something to talk about between the source of the Thames and London.
