TV Worth Watching: BBC Who were the Greeks? (3 episodes)

Another great documentary from the BBC on the Ancient Greeks and everything they brought to the world. This is another show for my “Own Private Master’s Degree” collection as it provides a great, overall understanding of who the Greeks were, how they lived and fought and how they fostered knowledge that we still rely on and respect today.
