I'm working my way through the series, and am being entertained, informed and provoked to thinking about the issues raised by each episode.
If you want a hi-res artwork for your podcasts (the BBC-created version is 'orrible), here's one I made up myself.
Thanks to Rory for enthusing about the series.
