Saw this....Otzi the Iceman on More 4 next Wednesday. I don't think this is a repeat, at least I hope not, as i'm looking forward to it

Its this one I think, not a bad watch as it happens.

 

[Stringmaker]

Bump.

This is on tonight.

 

[Goatboy]

Excellent, good reminder.

 

[rik_uk3]

I thought it interesting that he had what many consider 'modern' deceases. Its well worth watching.

 

[Shewie]

Thanks for the reminder, I'll be tuning in

 

[Stringmaker]

Interesting conclusion about the circumstances of his death i.e who/what/why?

I won't spoil it in case you have yet to watch it but it was a reasonable inference I thought.

 

[delbach]

If you missed it,like me, it's on again on saturday 9pm More 4

I enjoyed that last night, cheers for the heads up

 

[John Fenna]

I too realy enjoyed that!

 

[Stringmaker]

In some ways it was like the story of Richard III.

It was a fluke of nature that his body wasn't crushed to bits; he wanted to be found and his story told.

I thought it interesting that he had what many consider 'modern' deceases. Its well worth watching.

Aren't the modern diseases the ones that came in with agriculture?

Very strange, the youtube link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X05-uMWzAhA has an American voiceover and the C4 version uses an English chap?

 

[Stringmaker]

TV companies do that all the time, depending on which format is sold and aired in which country.

I would guess that the YouTube link was first shown in the US?

 

[rik_uk3]

Looks like it, its a NOVA production IIRC still a great way of passing the time watching it

Thank you I was looking for this as I missed it last night.

 

[Seoras]

I watched half and then set the record. Hope to watch the rest tonight.

I did like the attention to detail. In some scenes (without saying too much) you see hunters with bows.

One of them I spotted the distinctive Holmegaard shape. Jumped out of my chair to point it out to my wife that he was carrying the same bow as mine and all she could say was that I was daft

Cheers

George
