Civilisation, BBC documentary, 1969
On telly tonight, BBC4, 9:10PM.
History of everything, from the dark ages to the 20th century, in 13 x 1 hour episodes.
Some say it's the best thing the BBC ever made. Others point out they "forgot" to mention women.

Offs, B3ta, please sort out short youtu.be links.

They work fine now.
The auto-preview is a bit wonky though. Click edit then untick the “don’t use auto preview” box, then save the post.
Getting YouTube shorts to embed is a bit more problematic.

Did that, doesn't seem to have worked. I'll make a manual image, I guess.

You also need to remove everything after the ? as well as the ?
i.e. youtu.be/b2lmlDp2WGg
Academic really, given that you can’t embed that video anyway.

I tried, but it doesn't seem to let you edit the URL.
I tried editing the text at the same time; still didn't work - the link is the original one, with a ?si=rjMpch7qehY2INP7 on the end.

Can’t remember if you can edit the URL. You can’t change titles for certain.

Finally a post dull enough to kill /links,
well done for delivering the fatal blow. It's a kindness, really.

Wait till you see the Beard/Olusoga version that no-one watched and everyone immediately forgot about
