Enjoyable but biased. Read the book as well.

Having read the book forst, I was disappointed that the conclusions reached within the text were not made on film. The film appeared somewhat biased toward there being a 'race' of Celts, which the book certainly did not, focusing rather on a 'Celtic' culture rather than a genetically-linked people.

The book spent a lot of time investigating and documenting the spread of what we now call 'Celtic' while placing this within a firm historical context. This, I guess, is the benefit of not having to fit findings into a short television presentation which needed to attract an audience.Read full review

Interesting dramadoc

Interesting dramadoc about what is known about the Celts, including some new and different evidence concerning their origins. Well produced.
