    This might be about a year or so old. It was a documentary (maybe a 3 or 4 parter) about people from deepest, darkest Africa coming to Europe for the first time.

    It might have been made by the BBC or Channel 4. I only ever saw a clip for it. The clip I saw was an African man looking out the window and seeing snow for the first time ever. He was mesmerized by it.

    I really wanted to see it when it came out but never did. Does anyone know what I'm talking about? :)

    It's on Nat Geo on Sunday nights at 7. Not sure if this is a new series cos had never heard of it before but it started about 2-3 weeks ago. Really really interesting programme. They think Prince Philip is the son of their God and are obsessed with getting to meet him.

    Yes, he sends them signed photos - haven't heard of any of the other deities doing this:p
