I think they've been really interesting programmes to see. I've enjoyed all of them since I started seeing them in the 80s and have never missed a programme!

Agreed, Katherine.

I think I've seen most of them since they started on BBC 2 MANY years ago.

I've still got quite a few of the subjects I thought most interesting on archive VHS.

I prefer the 'phisicsy' subjects to those 'biology' type ones like this year though.

Yeah, the BBC2 lectures were better than Channel 4's as i've got some on a tape and they are far more interesting!

I think my favourite lectures have been:

What is Music?: 1988, Professor Gordon Roberts

Planet Earth, an Explorer's Guide: 1995, Professor James Jackson

Staying Alive: The Body in Balance: 1998, Professor Nancy Rothwell.

If you missed today's, Billy, or any of the lunchtime transmissions, the whole series is being repeated in the middle of the night in about a week's time.

'Check TV listings magazines for details' as somebody once said.

Sorry, this one got duplicated.
