Britain's Great War - 2014 - NA (not finished)
Documentary on World War I that I had been looking forward to viewing.
Jeremy Paxman, who wrote the acclaimed book on which this is based, is the presenter.
Alas, he is too much of a good thing, at least for me.
Maybe I am getting tired of the presenter / tour guide format.
Mr Paxman is seems to be in almost every single scene.
His dead serious expression and over earnest delivery usurp maps, newsreels, archived interviews.
It's not like I have not seen WWI docs before, I have watched plenty. A few I have recommended.
Not this one, however. The omnipresent tour guide wore me out.
