TV New season press material for BBC Two. There seems to be a genuine leap towards trying to prove that the arts haven't really been hidden on BBC Four. There are some really interesting items in here, like an architectural version of their Great Britons contest in which ten celebs including Richard "Argos" E "That book was basically career suicide" Grant offer arguments as to why their respective buildings should get a much need 'Restoration' and to be saved for future generations, the winner chosen by a public vote.

Also featuring another documentary about the making of John Lennon's 'Imagine' (although this one by the Arena team who brought us that fabulously odd piece about 'Dead Ringers' at Christmas); and another look at Shakespeare, this time in four parts. I'll bet any money the first clip with be from 'Shakespeare in Love', with a voiceover saying ... "But was it actually like that?"
