All the King's Men
Film A blistering and still powerful political drama that deservedly won the best picture Oscar, with the best actor award going to gruff Broderick Crawford in the performance of a lifetime as Willie Stark, a thinly disguised portrait of Louisiana demagogue "Kingfish" Huey Long. Mercedes McCambridge is also superb as a political aide, gaining another well-deserved Oscar as best supporting actress. Today this movie may seem a tad hysterical and over-performed, but it's important to view it in the context of the time in which it was made - a time of extreme corruption and bigotry. Editor (and later director) Robert Parrish was responsible for restructuring director Robert Rossen's cut, based on Robert Penn Warren's unfilmable book. Parrish added new scenes and dialogue, making the film worthy of its Oscar nod and at the same time winning the undying respect of Columbia boss Harry Cohn. Crawford parodied Cohn mercilessly in his next hit, Born Yesterday.

Digging for Britain
Anglo Saxons
Documentary How much do you know about the Anglo-Saxons? Not much, I'll bet. The paucity of written records left by the Germanic warrior tribes, who moved into Britain when the Romans left, explains why their period was traditionally labelled the Dark Ages. Naturally, the archaeologists Alice Roberts meets for tonight's programme bridle at the term, and you can see why, given the gloriously crafted gold jewellery and artefacts the Anglo-Saxons left behind. We see plenty of the latter as Roberts visits digs and museums, and they offer a tantalising glimpse of a lost world, one riven by violence, given to feasting, and marked by truly awful dentistry. The artefacts are glorious - and Roberts offers enlightening context from the little history we do know. It makes you think: we had a Norman season recently - how about doing the Anglo-Saxons next? Radio Times reviewer - David Butcher
