Here is a National Geographic special I found online.
I HIGHLY recommend watching it:

I bought the DVD a while back. I was suprised to find the entire video online.
It lasts a long time: About an hour. But it is really, really good.

Can you give a summary, or what in particular you liked?

Its basically a day in the life of the Vatican.

I specifically liked the graphics that showed where St. Peter's grave was, how Constatine built the first St Peter's church right on that spot, and how today's St Peter's sits on the very same spot.

I was also surprised at the fair treatment of Catholic beliefs. There is a couple of errors (which is to be expected), but all in all it was pretty good.
