It is typical of some people to criticise before the programmes have even begun. The idea is fascinating, and , I'm sure will make for enjoyable listening for those many people who thirst for knowledge about art and beauty, in a world in which only the sensational or scandalous has a place. Three cheers for Neil MacGregor - having seen is to believe and hope.
