Tony Robinson done a ton of outstanding, engaging history documentaries. From Medieval Europe, the Victorian Era, the First World War just to name a few. His series on Rome is about as good as it gets. As much as I like and admire Mary Beard's insightful documentaries, Tony Robinson has a more casual, conversational approach. It's like being on vacation in Italy, and meeting a really knowledgeable fellow tourist, who is able to give tiny details often lost by professional tour guides.
