Happy Birthday BBC Two Part 4

The series celebrating the story of BBC Two concludes with a look at more recent highlights, including comedy classics The Office, The League of Gentlemen, Goodness Gracious Me and Little Britain. As the channel approached its fifth decade on air, Two Fat Ladies and The Naked Chef redefined cookery shows, A History of Britain told the story of the British Isles, My Family and Autism opened viewers' eyes to an issue previously rarely seen on television and Anne Robinson became the quiz show host the country loved to hate in The Weakest Link. In drama, Stephen Poliakoff returned to BBC Two with Shooting the Past, Holocaust Memorial Day was marked with Conspiracy, which examined how Nazi officials decided upon the 'final solution', and there were bold looks at disability in Every Time You Look at Me and Flesh and Blood. Meanwhile, One Man and His Dog was cancelled, causing the channel's controller to face the fury of upset viewers, and Great Britons got the country debating who should be declared the greatest Briton of all time.
