Thanks for that, Creyr.

Glad you enjoyed it. It's always the thing with making something like this - and it goes with the territory - just how much can you cram into 2 1/4 hours and still do some justice to the subject? The amazing thing is - and I hope this comes across with us just scratching the surface sometimes - just how much there is to know and reveal about these places. You only have to look at Burl's work to realise that it would take several lifetimes to really unravel these mysteries. Film/video is lousy at teaching, but is best at inspiring and moving. I hope we managed to do some of the latter.

Yep, we managed to avoid the crowds. Except at Stonehenge. That was mostly down to the time of year we chose to film - the bulk of which was done during the Winter moths. Most Summer filming was in Cornwall and on Dartmoor - I think the most folk we met was at Men-an-Tol.
