Don't write celebrity TV historians off just yet – as long as they don't stray from their expertise
For about 15 years, history has been experiencing a popularity boom. History books now sell more than 5 million copies a year in the UK and feature regularly in the bestseller lists. You can hardly switch on your television without seeing Simon Schama, David Starkey, Niall Ferguson or their younger, often female rivals holding forth in some exotic or historic location. Natasha's Dance, Orlando Figes' study of 19-century Russian culture, was advertised on huge posters in London's tube stations. The latest volume in Dominic Sandbrook's multi-volume history of postwar Britain is prominently displayed in bookshops across the land.

Cool Clicks: Happy 35th Birthday, 'Star Wars'

We scour the interwebs for the coolest movie news and more so you don't have to ...
"Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope" (back then it was just called plain ol' "Star Wars") opened 35 years ago this weekend. Moviefone celebrates the beginning of a cultural phenomenon with a collection of some classic "Star Wars" photos that you may not have ever seen before.
Actually, the fact that it opened against "E.T." makes "Grease 2" even cooler. Upon "The Chernobyl Diaries" sharing the same release date as "Men in Black III," MTV Clutch takes a look at some other, shall we say, "smaller" films that have opened against big Hollywood blockbusters.
Every male (and some females) on the planet heaved a collective sigh this week upon the news that Keira Knightley is getting hitched to some indie rocker dude. Who is this (very lucky) guy, anyway? Hollywood.com lists six »

Keira Knightley has apparently found Mr. Right... and as a result, she's about to become Mrs. Righton.
According to the Associated Press, the Oscar-nominated star of "The Pirates of the Caribbean" has officially become engaged to her boyfriend, musician James Righton.
Sorry, Captain Jack, but it looks like this ship has sailed.
Just when and where the pair will become married is still a secret, though no doubt the tabloids and paparazzi will do their best to find out soon enough. For now, though, the happy couple simply acknowledged through Knightley's publicist that they are, in fact, getting married.
Knightley and Righton, who is a keyboardist with the indie rock band Klaxons, began dating last year. The announcement comes during a rare break in Knightley's filming schedule; the actress can next be seen in "Seeking a Friend for the End of the World."
Looks like she already has found one. »
