I found some youtube clips (surprise surprise) which lead me to a website.
www.nowyouknowabout.com Fantastic stuff.
You can buy separately, or can buy a 3 dvd pack (Explorers, Scientists and Artists) for 31.99 pounds and postage is 1.50 pound anywhere in the world Britain is free.
They are in cartoon form, but look fantastic and packed full of information. For every dvd they sell, they give one away to a needy child.
Here are some examples from YOutube (with advertising on the clips)…by nowyouknowabout
