Rob Newman is a British Commedian - he does not do stuff very often, but when he does, it contains brilliance.
We gaze in horror in the 1800's, upon Navaro, Cherokee, Apache and Comanche, as together they impliment a policy of eithnic cleansing so relentless, so ruthless, so that by 1492 their is not one single European living on the North American landmass.

Approach a little closer and we may observe how a mans life changes his charecter. In the Southern cone of Africa, Nelson Mandela enters prison a sweet natured spice girls fan, but emerges from long incarciration a terrorist and revolutionary bent on armed overthrow of the state

There were six episodes - it was a few years ago now and I really remember it messing with my head - time travelling forwards but events not so much going backwards, but going forwards in reverse. After half an hour of watching it turns your mind so much you think you are about to unwatch it.
