Civilisations Stories S01 complete (540p, soft Eng subs)

A series of programmes exploring
art, history, science and innovation across the UK.

Art and the Sea
Actor Ace Bhatti, himself a former
lifeboatman, goes to Whitby, Hull and the small village of Staithes to explore how artists were inspired by the sea and
the men and women who make a living from it. He examines the pioneering photography of Frank Meadow Sutcliffe, paintings
by the Staithes Group of Artists and a piece of art which has been worn by a Hollywood star. 

 

Art Us and the Truth
Meteorologist Tomasz Schafernaker reveals his passion - and talent - for the art of
portraiture and discovers that our 21st-century obsession with image is nothing new. In this tour of some of the south
of England's art treasures, he learns how artists down the ages have subtly shaped and manipulated our opinions of
their subjects, and the times in which they lived, by enhancing some aspects of their features and erasing others. He
discovers how, 2,000 years ago, Celtic Britons looked to Roman coins for tips on how to appear as Roman as possible and
that Renaissance artists in the 1600s effectively photoshopped their subjects in oil paint to convey the right public
image, and the captivating portraits of pioneering Victorian photographer Julia Margaret Cameron inspire him to take
more risks with his own art.

Arts and Crafts in the South East
Sophie Robinson explores the Arts and
Crafts movement in the South East and finds out why it was a rebellion against Victorian mass production.

From Darkness into Light
Nick Baker journeys across Dartmoor to discover the artists and artisans that brought
its wild and raw beauty into the public imagination.

Frontier Land
Angela Bruce traces the impact of the
Romans on modern-day northern life.

Innovation and Inspiration in Birmingham
Join presenter Mark
Williams on the trail of three remarkable men from the 18th century. He uncovers tales of flamboyant dandies and
dealmakers, inventors and innovators - and shares the secrets of what amputations were like in the days before
anaesthetics. If you had thought Georgian England was just rich men in posh houses taking snuff, think again. Mark shows
that the West Midlands was a hotbed of creativity and discovery, and the evidence can be seen in paintings and other art
forms still with us today.

The Art of Mining
How coal created a lasting legacy of art in the east
Midlands, and the fight to preserve it for future generations. An industry, which once employed more than 24,000 men in
the region, will be remembered forever thanks to the rich collection of paintings, preserved colliery buildings and
artefacts, many of them saved by volunteers.

The Empire
In days of Empire - from the cloudy north west -
the world must have seemed exotic and vividly coloured. Brits travelled the globe to bring back treasures such as
mummies, art and even circus animals. Writer and broadcaster Stuart Maconie reveals how these discoveries influenced and
reshaped our towns and cities from one of the most colourful - and controversial - chapters of our past.

The
First Refugees
Fashion historian Amber Butchart unravels the story of 'the first refugees'. The Huguenot
silk weavers of Spitalfields made a perilous journey to Britain over 300 years ago, but they left a legacy of industry,
great riches and artistic masterpieces. 

The Remains of Slavery
ivilisations 'The Remains of
Slavery' is presented by Bristol's Poet Laureate, Miles Chambers - whose ancestors were taken as slaves from
west Africa to the Caribbean. Like the landmark series which has been running on BBC2, the history is told through
objects and architecture - but in this West Country addition, they are all found in and around Bath and Bristol. The
documentary reveals that while Bristol was responsible for the business end of the slave trade, Georgian Bath boomed on
the back of the profits made from it. Throughout the programme we visit landmark sites, including Dyrham Park, home to
the Blackamoor statues, the Saltford Mill, where guinea kettles were made and exchanged for slaves, the Henbury slave
grave, Beckford Tower and many more. Presenter Miles Chambers talks with experts of the West Country slave trade and
explores the artefacts that keep the history alive.

Treasures of the Bronze Age
Bushcraft expert Ray
Mears travels back in time 4,000 years into Bronze Age East Anglia in search of clues about its people living in this
mysterious yet innovative period of our history. The Bronze Age was a crucial point in time that linked the Stone Age
with the Iron Age. Ray discovers its artworks, jewellery, monuments and unusual finds - and how each object tells us
something about the spirit of our ancestors. He begins at Southwold Museum in Suffolk where he examines a small and
personable stone carving, the Easton Bavents Deer, made just as the Stone Age was ending and the Bronze Age was
beginning. At Holme beach in north Norfolk, Ray investigates the site of an imposing timber circle Seahenge, now
preserved at Lynne Museum. He discovers what it tells us about the ceremonial rites of the early Bronze Age people, and
how they were capable of great engineering undertakings. Ray learns about the shared religious beliefs of Bronze Age
people at Norwich Castle Museum where he goes behind the scenes with senior curator of archaeology Dr Tim Pestell to
find a rare Bronze Age treasure - the Rudham Dirk. Heading west towards the Fens, he visits Flag Fen Archaeology Park -
the site of an important Bronze Age settlement. Along with archaeologist Francis Pryor, Ray admires a beautifully made
dagger with antler handle and learns of the ceremonial worship of water. At Ely Museum in Cambridgeshire, Ray comes face
to face with the Great Gold Torc - a majestic piece of jewellery that marks the emergence of a warrior aristocracy. The
journey concludes back at Norwich Castle Museum with one of the greatest treasures ever discovered in Britain, the
Snettisham Treasure. This may have been the royal treasure of the Iceni tribe and was produced as the Bronze Age receded
and the Iron Age dawned. Ray's curiosity leads us on a journey back through time and to enlightening treasures -
showing us how the Bronze Age developed into an astonishingly advanced civilisation.
