Fires of Faith: A documentary series about the history of the English Bible. Not the Bible, mind you, but specifically the massive controversy and sacrifice and loss of life that were tied up in the creation of an English translation of the Bible, an act of translation that often carried the penalty of death for heresy. I loved this series when I was younger and it was my first introduction to excellent documentarian Lucy Worsley. I bought the DVD set seeing that physical copies may be disappearing, but fortunately it’s available for free digitally.
