'Spearheads in Skulls' - A History of Celtic Britain - Episode 2 Preview - BBC Two 

I love Barry Cunliffe's work. For a fantastic introduction to pre-Norman conquest Britain, check out Britain Begins.

this is very interesting, gonna try and watch this programme

It took true bravery to fight in those times.

When are they going to give Barry Cunliffe his own special?

"Everything about it, is violent." Yeah, that tends to be the case with weapons, actually...

In other words mankind hasn't changed a bit...very sad!

Just as it takes bravery to fight on the front lines today.

"that was the end of him"

@kaiuycn Great way for the strong to grow? Not necessarily true mate. The better equipped side usually wins, regardless of physical strength. Money is strength nowadays.

@kaiuycn - Progress, you call mass killing, progress...how so? I call it insanity!

More "makingitupasyougoalongandcallingit"history"" by Neil Oliver. Honestly, barely a sentence comes out of his mouth which isn't entirely unfounded speculation. I suppose I shouldn't care but I can't help feeling that, ultimately, it is as harmful as not teaching history at all.
