I bought the entire series on DVD, and this is my favorite episode. I've watched it a half dozen times already. Well worth the money.

I've watched this one at least a dozen times. Love it. Would love to see the play about Darwin and Gray - if the clips are any indication, it should be fascinating.

Looks like your Darwin Correspondence Project link is out of date. It didn't redirect when I clicked on it, just gave a link to a new URL:

Is there any place to DL the video? I'm dealing with an old computer and a not-entirely-reliable connection, and the herky-jerkyiness of the online player is driving me nuts.
