AS SEEN ON TV: CHARLES DARWIN

On this date 200 years ago, it was not only Abraham Lincoln's birth date, but that of Charles Darwin as well. So we have a double feature today for "As Seen On TV".

These are three views of Malcolm Stoddard as Charles Darwin: Top left - as a young man, pondering his future in his father's study

Top right - during his voyage with the HMS Beagle

Bottom center - as an old man poring over his manuscripts and maps of South America

These were from the mini-series 'The Voyage Of Charles Darwin' from just over thirty years ago on the BBC.
