This programme was done brilliantly well. I loved the woman playing the piano at the beginning I found Micheal Palin's voice as he described some of Hammersoi's paintings haunting and stuck in my mind. I must say I felt that I wanted to know more after the programme finished. As I watched this programme I felt I got into it more and more. It was wonderfully directed by Eleanor Yule and produced by Mahri McNeal. I thought all the music was beautifully chosen and perfect for the mellow mood of the show. Palin described the atmosphere of the places he visited so well I felt I was in the room with him. Watching it makes me want to know even more about him. Wonderfully made show recommend to all audiences.
