I enjoyed it, but I've tired of the VH1 style of documentary where you're hit with a quick series of sound bites from various people.
The people they had commenting were great, but due to the style I had to keep reminding myself that they were smart people from the industry and not d-list celebrities commenting on things they don't know about.  The countdown format also fell into the VH1 style of tv making.

Agreed - I guess it sells though doesn't it. People expect that form this sort of programming. At least it's being shown on a major channel though. That said, I'd love to see a good in depth documentary on the Discovery channel.

has anyone tried that link lately? tried to watch it last night and got a message it had been pulled due to copyright violation.

It's available to watch on 4OD, so Channel 4 probably had it taken down.

If you live in the UK, try this:

Our overseas friends may not be able to though...
