That's the link to Monday's programme on the BBC iPlayer: it may be available through other online sources (I don't have downloading abilities on this old computer so I don't know much about it). Most of the earlier episodes in this TV series have been posted on Youtube, so it may appear on there in a few days, too. The programme's mainly on the food of the court: we don't get to 1789 till 40 mins in, and it's passed over very briefly so they can get to Thermidor and more fine dining, 1795-style (if you're wondering why the costumes look so low-budget on that upcoming 'Terror!' programme, it's because it looks like they've blown a lot of it on wigs and food here!).

Don't watch it on a full stomach.

Aww, not viewable to those of us in the US. =/ Though we CAN see the first frame and your costume theory looks pretty likely.
