Hi, I'm not sure if this is the correct subreddit for this question-but it's worth a try.

I'm a British student currently studding GCSE's and going on to do A Levels next year. I want to try and broaden my general knowledge of history.

I feel that only learning about specific elements of history does not give me enough knowledge to have a general conversation about history, thus having a wider range of knowledge, would be fantastic.

I know the direct approach would to be pick up a text book, or research on the internet. However I stream a lot of T.V and movies so I figured if I could watch something more informative it would be a better use of my time.

If any of you have heard of horrible histories, I used to watch that when I was younger and loved it- so a more mature version of that would be great.

If anyone has seen/watched a good documentary or t.v series related to history, then please leave a comment. Thanks.
