    A humorous look at war and oil...Robert Newman gets to grips with the wars and politics of the last hundred years - but rather than adhering to the history we were fed at school,he places oil centre stage as the cause of all commotion.

    Excellent. Only seen some of it so far but it's right on the button. So much for the "War on Terror". Nothing seems to change, imperialism by a different name.

    He is brilliant. His history of the world backward is well worth a look too.
