Voyages of Discovery

Voyages of Discovery is hosted and narrated by a insufferable and arrogant Australian (sorry for being redundant) and self proclaimed explorer. Presumably exploring what people find so interesting about him. As an example of how repugnant he is, when taking about Tahitians, he is ecstatic and smiles like the Cheshire Cat when he explains that Cook's crew bought sexual favours for a handful of nail. Sad and disgusting.

If you can get past this guy the story is interesting with some filling in of back story and challenging of myths.

However, if you think all parts of empire and colony are despicable then this series is not for you.
