The ambition is Great! A series where swedens rich history is exposed step by step. The research is impressive, the scientists extremely knowledgeble.
But the host of the show is absolutely terrible. Total lack of charisma and everything he says sounds like bad acting. No empathy, no precense. He constantly looks like this is the last interesting job he has ever had. It seems that svt wanted a host that would be the opposite of the engaged and pedagogic scientists...
It seems like svt has dug deep in the barrel of swedish actors in small town theaters. Even though the dramatations of historcal scenes often are without speaking, the terrible acting shines through.
And the props... Looks like something from a high school-drama Class.
This is swedish tax-payer money at work. The elite of swedish producers at svt have done their best... public service in a nutshell.
