Michaael Wood One-Offs Read_Me.txt
These ten files represent Michael Wood's One-Offs, or single episode documentaries. "Masterpieces" is really more an appearance & commentary then a "true" Michael Wood show. There are others like this out there but they aren't available to me and I consider them minor. Going by the IMDB filmography the only major piece I don't have is 1992's "Darshan:An Indian Journey" and that is really too bad as I saw it on broadcast and was struck by it's quality. Perhaps he wants to promote the later series, "The Story of India" instead. If anyone has it - please post!
The main body of Michael Wood's works are series and I'll be getting around to those as there's a LOT more in that department. But for now, don't want to keep the request for his One-Offs waiting. I encourage fans to give the early shows a chance - they are less glamerous but very, very good. If you're a fan of "Trojan War" then that same style is seen in "Slow Train,", "Congo," and most especially, "Scared Way"(best parts when Michael get to Greece).
Some sources are obviously VHS, off-air, etc. but it's all classic Michael Wood. Many are no longer available for any money anywhere, so watch and keep them alive.
Enjoy!
