Re: Tim Hunkin [Secret Life of Machines] has a new series!
On Tim's https://www.timhunkin.com/ website there are links to remastered versions of the old programmes. I am currently downloading them.

Re: Tim Hunkin [Secret Life of Machines] has a new series!
Somehow I missed these on telly (I think they arrived in a patch where I didn't have a telly!) and I ignored this thread so far as (I think) I thought it would be another sentimental-brass-band-music-and-manufactured-jeopardy program.
But this is real engineering coupled with art, humour and political subversion. It's really really good

Ditto to the comments so far. Thank you for the heads up - I wouldn't have known otherwise. I can't wait to take our young lad to his arcade in Holborn when it's back open.

This is tremendously exciting (at least, I find it so) and I will certainly be giving these a re-watch. Quick edit: the description for the remastered videos provides some info about the remastering process, for those curious: Quote:
