This wasn't Shadowlands - it was supposedly factual, but I think there
must
have been some dramatic license. It was mostly Lewis giving
autobiography to
camera, with flashbacks to what he was describing.
Strangely, given the Narnian reference in the title, it concentrated on
the
Gresham stuff which happened after the Narnia books were all written. It
had
all been covered in Shadowlands, which was a TV film/play/Cinema film.

Since Narnia was created for Terrestrial creatures, I assume that the
year would be similar to Earth's year, otherwise we would have biorhythm
upsets.
