Tim Hunkin's Secret Life of Machines TV series is well worth a look too

I have vague memories of the Great Egg Race being really enjoyable too and
featuring lots of homebrew gadgets - sadly I don't think it's ever been
repeated though. These days there are just too many programmes for morons to
fit in TV shows that actually educate people, I suppose :(

ps. Any ideas why your emails to the list (and nobody else's) appear in a
larger font than normal? Not sure if it's just affecting Thunderbird here or
various other people's email clients too!
I recall a TV show a long time ago
Hmmm... the only one I know like that (that
isn't on today) was Johnny Ball Reveals All.
It was a UK show though, but was great for
learning about science and stuff... except I
wasn't really into science much back then.
(Johnny Ball is Zoe Balls (famous Radio DJ/TV
Presenter) father).
There is, of course, How 2 aswell. That show
has been running in the UK since.... well, since
I was a teenager. That makes it atleast 15
years old. Fred Dinage and erm... the other
guy still do it, but Carol Vorderman left to do
other things.
