It's not just about Australia Over the years, Robinson much like Terry Jones and Michael Palin from "Monty Python" reinvented himself--hosting nice historical documentaries which are a lot of fun.

Unlike many of his other documentaries, however, these are less historical and more just Robinson exploring various towns--not just in Australia but also in New Zealand. In each case, he gives some history of the town, walks the streets and meets interesting people and also does a bit about excavations which is what he often focuses in on in his other series.

The bottom line is that Robinson's nice, easy-going personality and the interesting information make this all very watchable--for adults and kids alike. Well worth your time.

The series begins with Operation Desert Storm in , when 35 nations retaliated against the Iraqi occupation of Kuwait.

The civil war that raged after the break-up of Yugoslavia in , as UN forces struggled to maintain order in the newly created nation of Bosnia under impossible circumstances. Testimony from peacekeeping soldiers, survivors and forensic scientists reveal the true horror of a war that has faded from public consciousness, and the helplessness they felt lacking the authority to act.

First-hand accounts of the Suez crisis of , when Britain and France resorted to military force to regain control of their lucrative transport arrangements in Egypt after the new president nationalised the Suez canal. The programme features personal accounts of soldiers involved in a situation that left the two European nations empty-handed and under heavy criticism from the UN.
