Timewatch (9.00 BBC2; 9.30 in Wales). Thomas More, ignored in Simon Schama's version of Tudor history, gets a whole programme to himself. Historian John Guy (of St Andrew's) argues with the aid of some dramatisations that the Man for All Seasons version of More's life is a "whitewash". The supposed "man of conscience" had an astute lawyer's brain and was also extremely keen on burning heretics.
