 * BBC One, 5.05 pm - Domesday. The Domesday Book is possibly the most famous survey in the world. Commissioned 900 years ago by William the Conqueror, it set out to record in minute detail every man, woman, child, barn, ploughshare, cow and pig across the length and breadth of England. In the first of five remarkable films, Michael Wood begins a journey across the contemporary English landscape, in search of the roots of English history and the English people.
