It is a great show. Channel 4 have been advertising lately that you can go on to 4OD and watch complete series of programmes such as Peep Show. So you can go there and watch every episode like a boxset.
I'm going to have a look myself at the weekend to see the full list of available shows.
 
Just started a few mins ago on BBC.1, Imagine with Alan Yentob all about the resurgence of the word game Scrabble.
 
The Secrets of Quantum Physics: 1. Einstein's Nightmare

Jim Al-Khalili's new BBC4 series just started (available on iPlayer) and am expecting it to be as good as his stuff usually is. Watched the first one this morning and is off to a good start. Double slits, entanglement and how Einstein lost an argument for once. Good stuff.

By sheer coincidence (or perhaps synchronicity, or even general quantum weirdness creating my own reality (latter is perhaps more of a stretch but seems appropriate to include as vague possibilty) I just happened to be watching a documentary on the same Bohr/Einstein debate a couple days back - Atomic Physics & Reality.
 
Yeah i really liked it - especially the relatively generous mention of the hippified physics like tao of physics and dancing wu-li masters (reminded me to get round to read it, plus that one he said was his fave (spacetime and beyond) sounds cool too - i loves a bit of hippified physics (speaking of which i just got fritjof capra's new book)). His demonstration of the alain aspect experiment was good to see in practice (and, ahem - post 667).

Can't wait for episode 2 (but i think there's only 2 episodes which is disappointing)
 
Dunno why his series seem to have gotten into the two-episode only formula recently. Given the topics he covers they could (and should) easily manage more than a couple episodes on each topic. They're always worth watching but I do find they tend to be a bit of a tease :!

And as for post #667... I blame quantum decoherence ;)
 
Yeah, 2 episodes is your lot (probably wasted the budget on that 1920s nightclub reconstruction). I did think at the end of ep1, how are they going to get 6 episodes out of what's left (next one sounds cool though - includes stuff about quantum effects in evolution)
 
I don't know if anybody here watches 'The Apprentice' or not? Tonight BBC.1 9pm is the episode which is usually for me the highlight of the series. It's the episode where the remaining candidates go through the job interviews from hell, their Cv's get pulled to pieces alongside their business plans and anything incriminating they may have said along the way
 
Spike Milligan - Love, Light & Peace - feature length doc about the life and work of the great man. Focusses mainly on his life and his lifelong struggles with bipolar disorder. Good stuff.

The Secrets of Quantum Physics - Let There Be Life - second and final part of Jim Al-Khalili's latest series. Interesting to see a bit of a departure from the usual QP docs - don't think I've seen one that goes into the biological aspects of the sub-atomic world before. Fascinating stuff.

Both on iPlayer.

Was really good - the stuff about how the nose is really an ear was the best bit.
