"This BBC programme is both an interesting review of events that impacted the price of oil over the last 30 years as well as a excellent survey of the outlook for energy development. I also learned about shale gas explorations being pursued in the North of England.

"Worth half and hour of the time of anyone interested in energy investment.

"Turmoil across the Middle East sent oil prices jumping and has raised big questions about the security of the energy supplies that have powered the world economy for the past 100 years. Peter Day investigates the future of oil, and what the current upheavals might mean for other energy supplies."

My comment - Thank you so much. This is very good - the BBC and Peter Day at their very best.
