| Summary: | In the first of these fascinating films Michael Scott travels across Greece, visits ancient cities and battlefields, great ruins and wild countryside, all in his search to uncover how the ancient Greeks lived. What he discovers is surprising and at times outrageous -- a people as brutal as they were brilliant. In the second film he travels wider to sites of the ancient Greek world -- from Athens to Olympia, Macedon, Turkey and Sicily -- to discover why the Greeks were so successful and why their culture and way of life spread across continents and through time, and why they still have such a powerful hold over our imaginations today. |
