Invasion! with Sam Willis
Episode 3
Tuesday 19th, December, 9:00pm - 10:00pm
BBC Four
Three-part series in which historian Dr Sam Willis reveals a remarkable story of invasion in Britain spanning thousands of years. In this final programme, Sam Willis continues to tell the story of the invasions that have shaped Britain. He finds evidence of the rich legacy of the Huguenots who came to Britain bringing fine silks and the latest technological developments. He also discovers the ingenious French plans to invade Britain by balloon and the subterranean fortress built for troops in the 19th century when invasion paranoia was at fever pitch.

The episode of League of Gentlemen tonight lived up to expectations.
I can only think of Little Britain that has gave us so many wonderful characterisations in the last 20 years
