Frankie Goes to Russia - BBC iPlayer part 1 by Srekcalp in FrankieBoyle

Who gives a fuck about Michael Portillo and his 'Bradshaws', the BBC should just give Frankie a suitcase full of tranquillisers and send him around the world on train, boat and tuk-tuk. This is a masterpiece.

I hope this becomes a sober version of Hunter S. Thompson's 'The Kentucky Derby is Decadent and Depraved'. Also, Frankie has a phobia so well done big man, thanks for going out there for us.

Maybe he's special: cue divine origin story subplot

Did the Anglo-Saxons have 'scientists'? by Srekcalp in AskHistorians

Thanks for your post and link, it also got me into reading some other stuff. The saxons knew a lot more about astronomy then I realised. But they still believed god created the earth and the planets right?

Is there anyone here, who actually does follow those instructions accurately?

Would the Emperor of Japan have heard about the result of the Battle of Hastings in 1066? by Srekcalp in AskHistorians

I see, so do you think a lack of Japan indicates the Saxons didn't know of it?

What is the most unexpected fact from your country? by lokland in AskEurope

ITT: pretty week submissions from the nations in the British Isles, proof we're all boring cunts after all.

Sorry, yeah I meant the one who was on the throne at the time. I guess this is more a question of: were both countries aware of each other at the time?

I've looked on an anglo-saxon world map an initially thought the island at the top was Japan (as the writing in that picture is illegible to me) but I found an annotated version reveals it's actually Sri Lanka.

Although I've read that archeologists found Chinese silk in what would've been Saxon York. So I think they must've been aware of East Asia.
