Sorry, I don't know how to do it or I could watch US/Canada shows!<br /><br />Episode 3 has a comment, if I remember it correctly, by Millais - 'I painted for fame, now I paint for money'. It discussed how advertising picked up on the visual aspect of the paintings.<br /><br />Lady of Shallot is one of my favourite PRB pictures.The Nightwatchmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06656526658492376281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2344548830618247839.post-71416983876669146482009-08-10T11:52:51.086-06:002009-08-10T11:52:51.086-06:00I think the same person who posted the Desperate R...I think the same person who posted the Desperate Romantics episodes on YouTube may have also posted at least part of the documentary.Annenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2344548830618247839.post-70871960154767265372009-08-10T11:40:52.077-06:002009-08-10T11:40:52.077-06:00Any idea when this is coming to the states??Any idea when this is coming to the states??Pamela Terry and Edwardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12746603636884819522noreply@blogger.com
