They are really asking for a lot of money though.  This is about 18,000 vs. 100,000 pounds!

Instead of some boring  4.5 hour documentary, I would propose spending your money on something useful. How about this project: http://www.fractalforums.com/fractal-forums-news/website-closing-down-on-24th-of-march-by-hoster/?topicseen ?

???? £15 for a film is not excessive ? Plus have you seen the cost of making an average film ? Even "Born of Hope" was over £200,000 if I remember correctly.

That's resolved - and "boring" ? I can't think of a more interesting subject for a 4.5 hour documentary - at least not one that doesn't involve fractals ;)
