The host is TV historian Bettany Hughes. She talks a lot and seems to really enjoy her Greek history. It's a six-part British series. It's part-travelogue and part classical Greek history class. It can feel random at times. It's hard to place these stories in any order other than all jumbled together. It's more like one story after another and it's also one place after another. I don't mind it. It's a Greek holiday roulette. The only misstep is not eating any meat after the boar hunt. I'm not saying that she should force herself to eat the meat. Maybe step back and just film the people enjoying their food. It's awkward to have the vegetarian excuse. Nobody wants to hear it. Just cut it out of the show. One should relax and let the sun-soaked Greek locations wash over you as she drones on about the endless Greek stories.
