I saw a couple of good programs on TV. There was a program on the FBI investigation on King Tutankhamun's death. It was very interesting. In case you are interested, the following web links might be informative and useful.

Tut's death investigation

Who killed Tutankhamun?

I have a read a book called "The Tutankhamun's affair" by Christian Jacq on how Tutankhamun's burial tomb was found by Howard Carter with Lord Carnarvon's help. It was a very good book. Though most of the reviews categorise the book into Historic fiction, I think there is some amount of truth involved. So I will not call it fiction entirely, I'd call it fact-based fiction.

Another program that caught my interest was on Iranian Cinema. Last week Channel 4 had shown movies from Iran. Pity, all movies were shown after 12 o'clock in the night and I couldn't watch even one movie. But I got to see an documentary and interview on Iranian film makers and actors. It was interesting, I mean the concept of Cinema at Iran is totally different. Film makers from Iran are very restricted by the Movie officials (like our censor board). They can't make movies showing sex (even between husband and wife), violence, prostitution, threats to people from other communities, scenes that insult ladies and more on those lines. I was just thinking if Hollywood had to go through such a strict censor, there won't be any movies to watch only!
