This series probably cannot be compared with Discovery-of-India/Bharat-ek-Khoj by Nehru/Benegal. But, it has lot of useful information for NRI (non-resident-indian) children living outside.
I got the Blue-ray directly from PBS. I am very happy. My family including 8 and 12 year children, watched it in one go.
As a presenter, Mr. Wood has been well received by my family. The other British presenter, my family liked the most, is Sir David Attenborough.
