Tony Robinson presents unseen 3D stereographic images of the mythologized and sanitised ‘wild west’- re-examining the iconic figures that characterised the legend.

This episode focuses on two of Tony’s obsessions from his childhood love of Westerns - cowboys and gun slinging outlaws. It also asks the question, who were the real winners of the West?

Using the rise and fall of Buffalo Bill, Tony looks at how a generation of Western pioneers and larger than life characters had the skill and vision to create their own legends and invent stories which - thanks to Hollywood - have become ingrained in our collective psyches.
