But the unedited video interviews are available in the accursed quicktime format.
And a little cleverness ought to allow you to save them. I just watched a few minutes of
the Barlow interview.

Hi all,
I wasn't going to send out an email about this, but I
thought the 2nd
episode was just as good as the first one, so
here I
am :)
In short, the programme (airing BBC2, UK, around
8:15pm Saturdays) The
Virtual Revolution looks at the history of the
internet (US Military,
ARPAnet, The Well etc.) and it's influence on
modern
life (hackers,
terrorists, social networking etc.).
The official site can be found here:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/virtualrevolution/
Video's of some of the interviewees (including Tim
Berners-Lee and Peter
Thiel) can be found here:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/virtualrevolution/interviews.shtml
A whole host of computers have been seen (for a few
seconds) on the
programme, including an Altair 8080 and a
PDP-10.
Some short clips of the programme can be found on
YouTube. All of episode 2
can be found on BBC IPlayer here (for the next 7
days
only):

it.
