Sky at Night
Decent slot BBC4 1930 - 2000 Thu 10th Oct but for some reason my
recorder didn't pick it up via series link so if you rely on that, don't! Adding it to be recorded doesn't offer the series link option either. Presumably because this is a "special"? Note that the showings on BBC4 are the 30 min not the 20 min version as shown on BBC1 or BBC2. Well at least that is the size of the BBC4 slots in the EPG, even if the episode listings on the BBC website all say 20 min. -- Cheers Dave. |

Yes, the BBC4 ones are the 30 minute XL version (or should one say the NSBS [Not So Bloody Short] version?) and contain a bit more material which is edited out of the initial late night BBC1 showing. |

In fact on that observation the BBC should have been obliterated long ago :-) Good job you put the smiley. ;o) Looking at the dire 'science' offerings now being shown by the Discovery network and History channel, at least BBC science programs do contain *some* science rather than 'rednecks' bidding on storage lockers or Eric-Von-Fvcking-Daniken appearing on shows like 'Ancient Aliens'.. All TV science is being dumbed down in every Western nation for some reason. Worrying. -- Rob |
