Hidden Treasures of...

I'm not quite sure if this is a miniseries. It is announced to be aired

February 25th, 9:00pm on BBC 2 / BBC HD

Griff Rhys Jones sets off on a series of adventures to find out what extraordinary treasure is still being created in far-off places by the indigenous people of today.

There are also some lovely pictures in the gallery on the homepage.

ETA:

There are going to be three parts.

More on episode one: Hidden Treasures of Australian Art

It's a three parter - one from Australia, one from Africa and one from India. There are some nice location pics on the Gallery page now courtesy of Griff.

I know there are some radio interviews too - I shall put Listen Again links up on the main page tonight!

Excellent program on the Torres Straits.
Looks a beautiful place with fascinating people.
A great policy to keep white people at bay and preserve their culture.

Thank you Roberthorse - I'm glad you enjoyed it.
