3 episodes in and getting into it nicely. Heavy emphasis on Psychology. Tracked down that haunting piano piece that gets aired quite a bit as a Nine Inch Nails track from last year's Ghosts VI album (worriment waltz)

Have mainlied it all week really. Watched the last one last evening. Be forewarned, it's almost 2 hours long. Much to enjoy (is that the right word for it?) and digest. Though tbh with me, it's a bit 'preaching to the converted'. Still, enjoyed it like all his other doc's. Some boss tunes as ever, Mekons, Gang of Four etc...

I liked the dancing and synchronised movement bits in the latest series. He has put them in some of his other documentaries too. They are very fine dancing clips. Surreal and marvellous.
