Lang Lit 'History as entertainment' homework

Here's the link for the documentary I couldn't show you. Complete the following activity for next Friday (13th nov).

Watch about 5 mins and note down the techniques used to make it engaging/entertaing/hook the audience (who might the audiences be?). Also note key quotes and put an analysis of how language and other teachniques combine to inform and entertain the documentary's audience on your blog - remember to identify techniques in the quotes wherever possible.

What have you learned that will help you to write that kind of text yourself?
