17th January 2025 A full guide to the BBC Schools TV topics series Landmarks' is underway - I'm adding pages for each unit of programmes starting in 1988 and heading to the end in 2002.
Once that's all done there will be a full episode list including repeats from previous series, a single-page guide to all the units, and an overview to the whole series.
The companion series Zig Zag for younger pupils already has a full guide set up.
17th January 2025 again: Catching up... here are various updates made to the site over the past year, which I didn't have time to summarise here.
