The Key to Stonehenge
Tonight (3 Nov) at 7.30 on BBC Two Wales -- the first part of a new series on Hidden Histories. Made with the cooperation of the Royal Commission on Ancient and Historical Monuments............. The first part deals with the Preseli-Stonehenge connection -- the advance blurb says that the programme will reveal how the key to Stonehenge lies in the Preseli Hills. Hmmm -- I wonder what we will get? Not more Darvill-Wainwright fantasy, I hope......

Thanks Pete. Should be interesting -- it will be one-third of the programme, maybe 12 mins or so.....
