The Dog's Bollocks Indeed

And it is, from start to finish, The Dog's Bollocks.
What an amazing, wonderful, fantastic series that has ever had the fortune to grace the television screen, the dog's bollocks indeed.

There is very little on television that I could view twice, (as last night) but this series, not a problem, not at all at all at all, simply the best.
The best in educational value, the best in entertainment and the best example of jiggery pokery that I have ever witnessed.

Jiggery pokery so good in fact that these buggers were alive and a viewer had no problem being transported back to a time all those millions of years ago when these rascals, both large and small roamed the earth.

That I say no problem being transported back is in fact wrong, never a title has more fittingly been ascribed,
"Walking with dinosaurs" because surely that is what you were doing as you witnessed the trials and tribulations of these awe inspiring creatures.

It is rarely I can feel the slightest bit of compassion or sympathy for the fundamentalists or the creationists, but watching this production makes me want to reach out to them and say, give it up, come and join us, this is what you are missing.
Put away all your nonsense and all your ignorance, come and fall into the arms of evolution, embrace each other in something that transcends any feeling that you might have previously felt, come and experience truth and the true wonder, the wonder of evolution.
It will blow your mind.

At this point you could be forgiven if you accused me of being a salesman for the BBC, for this production, I could be, would be, and for free, that's how good it is.
So if you live in some remote part of the world or some part that there is little likelihood of ever having the opportunity to have this wonderful experience, follow the link to the BBC shop,* part with your twenty quid, about forty bucks American, and when it drops through the letter box, throw it into the machine, sit back, and go "Walking With Dinosaurs."
