Nope. Been out of school for 23 years. Just enjoy learning.

Just rewatched this and I love how Hutton put his view of deep time: "No vestige of a beginning, no prospect of an end". I remember hearing that in my 30s and renewed my love of geology. This era when the foundations of the science were being laid down by men like Hutton, Kelvin, and Lyell is incredibly fascinating to me. And I love Iain's guiding us--his obvious enthusiasm makes any presentation by him even more delightful. Thanks so much for uploading!

The bit about being told to stop talking about rocks on vacation is very accurate. Geologist curse. Best to go hiking with nerds. Also I love the guy hiking in a suit.

That is not a suit. Tweed is casual working wear for a gamekeeper. Tough and warm. Some designer thought it looked cool and popularized it. Eskimos wear furs to stay warm, but we have made them a fashion statement, for example. Scotland is cold like Canada.

I can't believe it has taken me so long to discover this 3 part series. A fascinating and informative insight into Geology that is so well presented and sheds light on the unsung heroes that put their theories and reputation on the line. We all know about Darwin and his greatness but James Hutton is up alongside him as one of the greatest thinkers of his age. I only wish as a boy spending so many holiday's in the highlands during the 70's with my brothers and sisters i had paid a bit more attention of the amazing countryside.

I love anything with Iain Stewart in it. I would have loved to be able to sit in on some of James Hutton's talks with like minded friends. He is truly one of the seminal figures in geology--especially Scots geology.

Thanks very much for posting this series. I'd more or less forgotten it which is close to being a sin! When I studied geology as part of a degree, Iain Stewart's programmes were so helpful in putting dry words into technicolor in my mind that it turned an arts student into an arts/science one. It's a shame that this and the Journeys series don't appear to have been released on DVD. I fully recommend those series of his which have been to anyone with curiosity in geology or the world in general. Remember that the geology a region has affects the culture, science and trade it developed, so if your interest is human history, these programmes give valuable "back stories" for you to work with. Sit back, watch, listen and enjoy!

Thank you so much xMatx4 for uploading this wonderful series for us to watch.

one of my fav BBC docs, have watched it numerous times, learned so much.

A absolutely great documentary. Love the professor who narrates it and the history is just fascinating! Thank you for making this!

My old Geology teacher was friends with Stewart!! Some of the people from that class actually get taught by him now at whatever Uni he lectures at XD What a legend man, hope I get to meet him one day lol

Many thanks for uploading this. I am slowly working my way through all the bbc geology stuff I can find. Most of it is presented by Iain Stewart who I enjoy listening to. Last month I also watched a tv series from the states called "Nature of the planet - an introduction to geology" which was fantastic. I also plan to study Geology at University next year. At 40 I will be a mature student, I am a little afraid I will be older than the lecturer however I am passionate about this subject. Thanks uploader you have great content on your channel .

31 and just about to take my last couple of pre-req's at the small local college to transfer to the Geology Dept. of the larger research University. Finally, I've realized that I CAN pursue this beautiful study and make something of it. It's been right in front of my face and I didn't realize it until now. (Even with all my rock collections and obsession with caves?!) Wild. Hooray for you and us on this journey!

Brilliant. He has a way of looking at the camera which totally engages the viewer. Also he explains some complex theories very simply which is perhaps his genius. The accent is great too so well done to the erstwhile professor! And then of course we must give all due credit to the cameraman(woman) and the editors who put this together, and the BBC for giving the airtime that geology deserves. Scotland's scenery is spectacular and this is coming from a geologist who lives in South Africa - a place known for its magnificent landscapes. Well done to all involved!

Couldn't agree more. I've seen so many nature/geology docs that are lazy, rote exercises in tedium, with relentless, low-end, computer-generated music, bullying, hectoring narration and a host who almost looks as if he/she's phoning it in. Iain Stewart is very different - he has charisma, knowledge an almost infectious energy. He also knows how to tell a story - verbally and visually. Tnx for posting.

Ian you are an amazing narrator, I love the strong genuine scott accent and the excitement in your videos, you and nick zentner from central Washington University would be the greatest duo ever, I've been studying geology, siesmology, volcanology and geophysics for over 10 years now, not counting the work I did in school, at some point I'm planning on moving to Washington to continue my studies, I know more about the pacific northwest and Scotland and britian than I do my own region. I live in ky we have some amazing geology in the red River gorge, hope you all are well, best wishes, prayers for you all, thanks Ian

The best explanation of geology for an interested lay-person that I have yet seen. I will recommend this to anyone who has an interest in the science of our planet. Our kids love it, especially the accent !!

Bbc creates some of the best content. It’s great to learn and see things you’ve only read in books.

Came here for the homework, stayed because this is actually a good documentary.

This guy is a very good presenter, really natural clear style I saw another documentary he made about James Clerk Maxwell that was also excellent

Professor Iain Stewart the Poet of Geology

Great great video

Fantastic! I was looking this interesting video for the second time. Now I grasp the meaning of time, through the understanding of geological processes that underline the history of the Earth, this blue and beautiful planet. Thank you very much dear Ian Stewart for your kind effort to popularize the history of scientific ideas. I hope that this kind of documentary film be translated into Arabic, because the Arabic societies are in urgent need to demystify the forces of nature

I didn't know Jason Plato was doing geography documentaries now!

Iain Stewart is possibly the best presenter anywhere anytime for this type of thing. Warm Intelligent and low key, he is a complete natural. He knows how it works and he just gets on with it. Top man!

Now I see why our ( and your) John Muir who came from Scotland was such a great explorer and field geologist who figured out so much of our Sierra Nevada mountains and western USA geology he probably knew about Hutton

Thats really a good one and inspiring

The genuine display of excitement by Ian when he sees the pink granite intrude into the the gray sandstone for the first time gave me a feeling that that is how James Hutton may have reacted when he saw it for the first time! It really is hard to explain to others.

the most important thing here is that many viewers may think that Lord Kelvin is in contradiction with James Hutton; but in contrary they are both in accordance with one another, on one very important aspect: they are in disagreement with the bible about the time scale of the genesis of the Earth. the bible date its birth in 29 of October 4004 BEFORE Christ ; James Hutton theory, says that there is no birth of the Earth or the geological time is endless; Lord Kelvin dated it between 2O to 40 million years! which is almost infinity...

He's awesome

It's a great documentary , but as I'm not native english speaker , I tried hard to understand the video,and still enjoyed it , but it would be great if subtitles were added.

I have a question I hope someone can answer here: The rolling chalk downs of East Sussex and Kent are exposed at the coast where you can see horizontal rows of flint exposed on the cliffs; yet the downs roll. Why? I know the flints were formed in holes in the ancient [horizontal] sea bed. I read somewhere that the Downs were the last wrinkles of the Swiss Alps as the African plate pushes north into Europe but the flints belie that explanation yet I don't see much in the form of brooks or rivers cutting into into the bottoms of the down in the landscape near the cliffs.. the adjacent land just seems to roll up and down in a very smooth (and pleasing) way.

50:00 A lost opportunity here; Lord Rutherford - the father of nuclear physics and the first, with radioactive decay, to date the Earth - is the son of a Scottish immigrant to New Zealand.

Not homework, just love rock.

The opening should have been Bon Scott belting out Let There Be Rock
