Three Australian brothers, one of whom is an archaeologist, have cycled the route taken by Hannibal on his journey from Iberia to Italy, making a TV documentary series as they went. It's in 6 parts, each of half an hour, and can be watched on BBC iPlayer. I've just watched the first, and can't wait to watch the rest. It's lighthearted, but spot on with its history, and gives something of the feel of the epic journey. Have a look here:
