I'm an American and I am so jealous of all of you LOL. What a fascinating documentary, but I want more more more. Great job, and when I retire as an American archaeologist and historian, hopefully I can be a volunteer at one of these great houses. I'll even be happy to be a trash collector!
The magnificent portrait of the handsome 2nd Lord Berwick that appears at 3.15 is the work of George Romney, an excellent portrait painter usually neglected by the "experts".
There are countless very old things in both North and South America - but they are the ruins and remains of Native American kingdoms and civilizations. Since European diseases swept through the Americas after the first Europeans invaded, and those diseases killed an estimated 90 to 95 percent of the already existing population, there were not enough native peoples left to effectively fight back against the invaders. Europeans didn't conquer the Americas through battles, they conquered through biological attacks. And they destroyed most of the records they found in the kingdoms they subjugated, because they were religious bigots.
He should not be allowed in any kitchen without adequate training. He didn't seem to understand the basics of hygiene - what were the producers thinking?
As an American I can't help but chuckle when the rich people here try to flaunt their wealth. Then Great Britain chuckles and says "Hold my beer".
Yes. And for thousands of years, horrible brutal battles and incredible-history.
Love these documentaries......

As an American that grew up in Europe I laugh when people think things are old in America.
