I've done some cautious cleanup of the style and grammar, eliminating sentence fragments and a few rhetorical excesses. But the main problem of this article is that it reads like an essay on the events, though the stated subject of the article is a documentary, not the events themselves. If the article is intended as a summary of the documentary, this needs to be made clearer, and there should be some discussion of the documentary itself. If it's intended as a history of the Pompeii eruption, it's in the wrong place. GMcGath 14:38, 26 March 2006 (UTC)
- I have added details of the production itself, however the section "The unexpected catastrophe" is a straight copy of the text from the BBC history site here [[1]], and is thus a copyvio. I have tagged the section accordingly.
