Immortal Egypt

I appreciated that Joann didn't cover only the standard history, but continued through the Greeks to the Roman takeover. I learned some new things. Thanks!

I really enjoyed this little series, largely due to the enthusiasm shown for the subject matter by the presenter, Joann Fletcher. I have always had a strong interest in Egyptian history, but over the years I have not kept up on the latest developments. From these episodes, I learned many new things about how the civilization had its beginnings, flourished, and ultimately declined. As an example, I didn't know that looting of tombs in the Valley of the Kings was sanctioned by the state, namely the high priest of upper Egypt. The cinematography is well done, giving beautiful views of the scenery, structures and artifacts left from their time.

This is a BBC 4-part documentary mini-series of the ancient history of Egypt. Joann Fletcher is the presenter. This is solid history. It is presented well and in a simple straight-forward way. It is easy to understand. There is good information. I'm not very knowledgeable. I enjoy the surprising takes on King Tut. Fletcher's unkept hair kinda fits her obsessive nature. All of it works very well.

C'mon Dr. Are you telling me that you think the Egyptians built the Pyramids? Just tell the truth, you know damn well that the Anunnaki built them. Stop lying please!!!

The content is decent and you gain a good insight into history and people of Egypt. The presenter, however, is terrible and insincere. She's tries to be overly dramatic and fails miserably.
