2nd part on Ch5 on Thursday, featuring cyprus, did anyone see it, truly amazing after nearly 50 years and still no nearer any chance of island reunification.

Told story from both Greek and Turkish sides.

Must be because the Turks and Greeks, have been fighting each other ever since the disagreement about Helen of Troy...

I think it's a great programme. It's easy to dismiss C5 but they do have some good stuff.

The Cyprus one was good. Personally I knew the basics of the island's division but had no idea about the no-go zone or of the nature of the divide in Nicosia.

The one on Detroit was good too. It showed how the decline there goes back decades. I'd thought it was a relatively recent thing.

I’m in the minority, I don’t mind Ben Fogle & enjoy some of his stuff.

I tried watching the Detroit episode, garbage.

Won’t be watching any more.

I can't stick him and I can't remember why.
