Planet Narnia
You may have already seen this, but if not - and you're in the UK - go see at one. It's the latest BBC1 documentary about CS Lewis - and the book which unlocks the imagery and themes of Narnia. Splendid stuff. Have a look here, while it's still up on iPlayer. The last ten minutes are a hopeless digression, but apart from that, it's pretty good.

Annabel's reading Planet Narnia at the moment - she reckons it's utterly brilliant and compelling.
Hi Jam
Watched it yesterday afternoon - it's just fab. and so refreshing. What made me smile was that the contrast to SO many such programmes: while they mentioned the fact that the likes of Dawkins wouldn't obviously have time for such a worldview, they didn't interview him - instead they cut to interviewing people like John Polkinghorne. Just brilliant!
Disagree that it was a hopeless digression though - it seemed to me to reinforce the canvas onto which Lewis was painting.
Happy days!
